Jeremy Miles Tyler (born June 21, 1991) is an American professional basketball player for Tianjin Ronggang of the Chinese Basketball Association (CBA). Tyler was drafted with the 39th pick in the 2011 NBA draft by the Charlotte Bobcats but immediately traded to the Golden State Warriors. Tyler was traded to the Atlanta Hawks in 2013.
Tyler attended San Diego High School in San Diego, California from 2006 to 2009. As a junior in 2008–09, he averaged 28.7 points per game for the Cavers.
In April 2009, despite a commitment to the University of Louisville, he chose to bypass not only college, but his senior year of high school as well.
In April 2009, Tyler announced his intentions to skip his senior year of high school to play professionally abroad. On August 23, 2009, he signed with Maccabi Haifa of the Israeli Super League for the 2009–10 season.
On March 19, 2010, he parted ways with Maccabi due to personal matters and headed home to San Diego. Tyler played just 10 games, averaging only 2.1 points and 1.9 rebounds in 7.6 minutes per game.
On July 29, 2010, Tyler signed with the Tokyo Apache of Japan for the 2010–11 season. In 33 games, he averaged 9.9 points on 51.7% shooting and 6.4 rebounds in 15.4 minutes per game. The Apache would dissolve soon after he left due to the impact of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
Tyler was selected with the 39th overall pick by the Charlotte Bobcats in the 2011 NBA draft. His rights were later traded to the Golden State Warriors for cash considerations on draft night. On December 13, 2011, he signed with the Warriors. On February 27, 2012, he was assigned to the Dakota Wizards and recalled on March 6. For most of his rookie year he received minimal playing time, but on March 21, in a game against the New Orleans Hornets, he was named the Warriors' starting center. He subsequently remained in the team's starting line-up for the rest of the season.
