Dylan Twitty has committed to play basketball for the Milwaukee men’s program next season, Milwaukee Athletics reported.
The 6-foot-9, 225-pound forward is expected to provide an immediate physical presence in the paint for the Panthers. His addition strengthens the program's frontcourt depth and defensive interior strength.
“We are very excited about the addition of Dylan,” head coach Bart Lundy said.
Lundy emphasized that Twitty possesses both the physical tools and the personal temperament required to succeed at the collegiate level. The coach said that Twitty is a high-level athlete with a frame that is already college-ready.
“He is a tremendous talent and an even better young man. Dylan gives us a young big man who has all the tools to be an immediate impact player. He has a college-ready frame and is a high-level athlete.” Bart Lundy
Twitty comes to Milwaukee following a season at Christ School in Arden, North Carolina. He has also built a strong reputation on the Adidas 3SSB circuit, competing with Team Loaded South.
Recruiting evaluators have consistently highlighted his specific skill set, which centers on rim protection, interior scoring, and rebounding. These attributes are essential for programs competing in modern college basketball's increasingly athletic environment.
His performances on the circuit drew specific attention from Prep Hoops, which identified him among notable 17U performers and emerging frontcourt prospects. This recognition aligns with his current standing as one of the nation’s top 2027 big men.
For the Milwaukee coaching staff, the acquisition is as much about culture as it is about court production. Lundy suggested that Twitty’s academic discipline and personal conduct will serve the program well off the hardwood.
“Maybe the best attribute is Dylan’s character,” Lundy said. “He is a great student and will be an immediate ambassador for our program. Panther fans please give Dylan a warm welcome.”
Twitty will spend the upcoming season playing for Blue Ridge School under the direction of head coach Cade Lemke.
