Alex Tyus shared his first thoughts on signing with Real Madrid for the remainder of the season.

Tyus said he is excited to join Real and is ready for his debut with the team, which is expected to take place on Friday against Armani Milano.

Tyus said Real is a club with great history and prestige and it means a lot to play for the club. The American center wants to help the team win in all competitions and offer another decent solution in the frontline.

The 2014 EuroLeague champion with Maccabi Tel-Aviv is expected to come off the bench for Real as the backup center of the team.
