BOURNE AGAIN: Tyler Bourne gets buckets from BK to CT

The floor general did things his way

As a young slick pg for Lincoln high school, Tyler Bourne had the look of the latest Coney Island point god to star for Coach Tiny Morton and the Railsplitters before a long and lucrative hoops career. Just as his name began to ring bells around the Big Apple though, he decided to transfer. "It was a very difficult transition because I know leaving Lincoln was like leaving home but I had to make the decision that was best for me at the end of the day," He says. Bourne resurfaced in CT, where he joined a Notre Dame Fairfield squad and quietly carved out a great high school career away from the distractions of the city. As the summer creeps up, he is now plotting out his decision for what's next.https://youtu.be/sNCiWk6pFfQIn CT, Bourne was inarguably one of the best players in the state, as he dropped 14 points and 10 dimes a game for a Lancers squad that won a ring and went a perfect 27-0. The change of play from the PSAL to CT was a definite adjustment, as more emphasis on X's and O's differed from the get out and go style of the city. Bourne wrapped up a fantastic year with a First Team All State selection by USA Today. "Honestly I felt like I could've accomplished more," He says. "But with me winning a ring senior year and surpassing 1000 points i'm happy."

The next move for Bourne is still up in the air but whoever gets him to sign the dotted line will be getting a shifty playmaker but more importantly, a winner. The transfer undoubtedly played a big part in the growth of his game, and he encourages others to find that happiness, wherever it may be. "Make a choice that benefits you the most," He advises. "Don't let another person determine your future, it's okay to be different."
