Quick Facts: Matt Ryan is a 6’8″ freshman forward from New York. He’s an incredible shooter and a key reserve on the 2015 team, currently averaging 5.8 points, 1.6 rebounds, and 1.0 assists per game.

Matt’s Twitter includes a lot more original tweets than Chad’s. However, most of them are very simple and run-of-the-mill tweets about sports and inspirational things, and so many of them were not needed in this article to explain Matt’s personal Twitter brand.

However, I was able to find a very telling, passionate, Caps-Lock-inspired tweet from Matt this summer, in which he very reasonably and calmly explained his polite disagreement with the officials of a game he was watching.

You tell ’em, Matt.
