Early life and high school career
Early life
Dylan Disu was born on November 12, 2000, in Austin, Texas, and grew up in the nearby suburb of Pflugerville.[7][8] He is the son of Rodney Anderson, who played football at Texas A&I University (now Texas A&M–Kingsville), and Michelle Anderson, who competed in basketball and volleyball at William Penn University in Oskaloosa, Iowa.[9][7] Disu has an older step-sister, Breonna Anderson, younger twin sisters Megan and Madison Disu, and a younger brother, Aidan Disu.[4] Although raised primarily in Texas, he spent summers and holidays in Iowa with extended family.[8] Disu's early exposure to basketball was influenced by his mother's athletic background, leading him to begin playing in youth leagues in Texas where he developed his foundational skills.[7][8] This groundwork prepared him for his high school career at Hendrickson High School in Pflugerville.[7]High school career
Dylan Disu attended Hendrickson High School in Pflugerville, Texas, from 2016 to 2019, where he played basketball under coach Dustin White.[7][4] During his junior and senior years, Disu led the Hawks to back-to-back District 13-6A championships in 2018 and 2019, earning MVP honors both seasons.[7][10] As a senior in the 2018–19 season, he averaged 23.4 points and 10.1 rebounds per game while contributing 1.5 blocks, 1.4 steals, and 1.2 assists.[4][7] One standout performance came in December 2018, when Disu scored a school-record 51 points, including 10 three-pointers, in an 82–73 overtime victory against Leander High School.[11][7] Rated as a four-star recruit by scouting services such as ESPN and 247Sports, Disu committed to Vanderbilt University in September 2018, choosing the Commodores over offers from programs including SMU, Georgia Tech, and Texas A&M.[12][13][14]College career
Vanderbilt Commodores (2019–2021)
Disu joined the Vanderbilt Commodores as a freshman in the 2019–20 season after committing to the program over offers from schools including Texas and Illinois. He appeared in all 32 games, starting 31, while averaging 7.4 points and a team-high 5.7 rebounds per game in 27.0 minutes of play.[3] His contributions helped anchor the Commodores' frontcourt during a season that ended with a 25–5 record before the NCAA Tournament was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a sophomore in 2020–21, Disu emerged as a standout, starting all 17 games he played and posting averages of 15.0 points and 9.2 rebounds per game in 31.6 minutes.[3] He led the Southeastern Conference (SEC) in rebounding average at the time of his injury and ranked third in field goal percentage (.492). Disu earned SEC Player of the Week honors on February 22 after averaging 23.0 points and 15.5 rebounds in wins over Texas A&M and Missouri, becoming the first Vanderbilt player in over 25 years to record 10+ rebounds in four consecutive games.[15] His season was cut short in late February 2021 by a season-ending left knee injury (a bone fracture requiring surgery), which sidelined him for the final seven games. Despite the abbreviated campaign, he was named the 2021 SEC Scholar-Athlete of the Year. Over two seasons at Vanderbilt, Disu played in 49 games, starting 48, and established himself as a versatile forward with strong rebounding instincts.[3] Following the firing of head coach Jerry Stackhouse in March 2021 after a 9–16 finish, Disu entered the NCAA transfer portal in April, citing a desire for new opportunities amid the program's transition.[16]Texas Longhorns (2021–2024)
In April 2021, Disu transferred from Vanderbilt to his hometown University of Texas, citing it as his dream school.[17] As a junior in the 2021–22 season, he missed the first eight games due to a left knee bone fracture sustained during his time at Vanderbilt but contributed in a limited role over 26 appearances, averaging 3.7 points and 3.2 rebounds per game without any starts.[3][5] During his senior year in 2022–23, Disu emerged as a starter for all 36 games, boosting his production to averages of 8.8 points and 4.4 rebounds per game while helping Texas capture the Big 12 Tournament championship.[3] He earned Most Outstanding Player honors at the 2023 Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship after averaging 17.8 points and 9.0 rebounds across the tournament's five games, including 18 points in the title win over Kansas.[18][19] Returning for a fifth-year graduate season in 2023–24 using his COVID-19 eligibility waiver, Disu elevated his game further when healthy, starting 20 of 25 appearances and averaging 15.5 points and 5.0 rebounds per game despite missing the first nine contests due to a lingering left foot injury from the prior NCAA Tournament.[3][20] A midseason left knee sprain against Baylor occurred but did not cause additional missed games. He delivered standout efforts upon return, such as a career-high 33 points in a January 2024 road victory over Cincinnati.[21][22] His performance earned him All-Big 12 First Team selection and the Big 12 Most Improved Player award.[23] Disu completed his master's degree in sport management from the University of Texas in 2024 while maintaining a 4.00 GPA.[24]Professional career
2024–25 season
Disu declared for the 2024 NBA draft but went undrafted at the conclusion of the event on June 26–27, 2024.[25] Following the draft, he signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Toronto Raptors on September 23, 2024, providing an opportunity to compete in training camp while securing G League rights for their affiliate.[26] The Raptors waived Disu on October 21, 2024, prior to the start of the regular season, and he did not appear in any NBA games. Disu subsequently joined the Raptors 905 of the NBA G League on October 28, 2024, marking his professional debut.[27] In 17 games (7 starts) during the 2024–25 season, he averaged 8.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game while shooting 45.0% from the field and 38.1% from three-point range, showcasing his perimeter shooting ability developed during his college career at Texas.[28] A highlight came on December 5, 2024, when he erupted for a career-high 26 points against the Greensboro Swarm, converting 8 of 9 three-point attempts in a dominant shooting display.[29] Disu's rookie professional campaign ended prematurely due to injury. He initially suffered a left foot strain and multiple tendon tenosynovitis on December 19, 2024, during the NBA G League Winter Showcase against the Rio Grande Valley Vipers, missing subsequent games before returning. He re-injured his left foot on February 26, 2025, against the Oklahoma City Blue.[28] On March 7, 2025, the Raptors 905 officially ruled him out for the remainder of the 2024–25 G League season.[28]2025–26 season
Disu recovered from the left foot strain and multiple tendon tenosynovitis that caused him to miss the remainder of the 2024–25 G League season, receiving medical clearance to resume full basketball activities ahead of the Raptors 905's October 2025 training camp.[28] Following his recovery, Disu signed a G League contract with the Raptors 905 and was included on the team's opening night roster, announced on November 7, 2025.[30] As of November 19, 2025, he had appeared in two early-season games for the 905, averaging 5.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 1.0 assists in limited minutes off the bench.[29] Primarily deployed as a forward/center in a reserve role, Disu has emphasized improving his three-point shooting as part of his post-injury development, building on a standout 26-point performance earlier in the prior season.[2]Career statistics
