Kyle Guy & Ty Jerome Swap NBA Jerseys After Kings-Thunder Game
Kyle Guy and Ty Jerome came to Charlottesville together in 2016, suffered heartbreak in 2018, and reached the peak of college basketball in 2019. In 2021, they’re opponents at the highest level of the sport. On Tuesday, the pair of Virginia legends faced off in an NBA game and commemorated the occurrence by giving each other a gift after the game.
After Sacramento topped OKC 103-99 at Chesapeake Energy Arena, the two posted on their IG stories about the swap.

Guy played 11 meaningful minutes in the game, dishing out three dimes, while Jerome scored eight points in 19 minutes. Jerome, it should be noted, has really come on of late and is averaging 10+ points per game so far this season. Guy has had a few moments this season and should continue seeing a boost in playing time due to some injuries the Kings have suffered.
