Kyle David Casey (born November 27, 1990) is an American professional basketball player for Helios Suns Domžale of the Slovenian Liga Nova KBM. He played college basketball for Harvard.
Casey attended Brimmer and May school where he averaged five blocks per game as a senior along with nearly 20 points and 12 rebounds per game. At B&M, he earned several awards, including a Reebok All-America selection, a McDonald's All-America nomination, MVP honors at the 2009 St. Sebastian's Tournament, and was the team MVP for three years.
In four seasons at Harvard, Casey was a two-time All-Ivy League selection and was voted as the league's rookie of the year in 2010. He averaged 10.5 points and 5.5 rebounds per game for his career, and after graduating, he ranked 13th in program history for career points (1,242), 10th for career rebounds (654) and third for career blocks (127). Casey helped the Crimson reach the third round of the NCAA tournament in 2014 after capturing a fourth consecutive Ivy League title. On that span, he led the team with four double-doubles and scored in double-figures 18 times.
During his initial senior year at Harvard, it was revealed that Casey and teammate Brandyn Curry were among the 125 students involved with the university's 2012 cheating scandal. As a result of the scandal, Casey was forced to sit out of the team's 2012–13 season.
After going undrafted in the 2014 NBA draft, Casey joined the Brooklyn Nets for the 2014 NBA Summer League. On August 29, 2014, he signed with Slovenian club Helios Suns Domžale for the 2014–15 season, playing in 32 games and averaging 12.4 points and 7.1 rebounds while shooting 52.8 percent from the field.
On September 16, 2015, Casey signed with the Phoenix Suns. However, he was later waived on October 15 after appearing in one preseason game. On November 2, he was acquired by the Bakersfield Jam of the NBA Development League as an affiliate player of the Suns. On November 13, he made his debut for the Jam in a 104–87 loss to the Santa Cruz Warriors, recording 10 points, six rebounds, four assists, one steal and two blocks in 26 minutes.
