Matthew Mayer (born September 23, 1999) is an American college basketball player for the Baylor Bears of the Big 12 Conference.

High school career

Mayer attended Westlake High School in Austin, Texas, where he played alongside future NCAA Division I players Brock Cunningham and Keonte Kennedy.[1] He committed to playing college basketball for Baylor over offers from Texas and Texas A&M, among others. Mayer was a consensus four-star recruit, according to major recruiting services.[2][3]

College career

Mayer had a limited role during his first two years at Baylor. In his junior season, he improved his efficiency and became a key contributor off the bench for one of the top teams in the nation.[4] Mayer grew a mullet upon the advice of his teammate Jackson Moffatt, who had the same hairstyle.[5]
