High school career
Cyril grew up in Enugu, Nigeria, and initially attended Hamilton Heights Christian Academy in Chattanooga, Tennessee. After his sophomore year, Cyril opted to leave Hamilton Heights to join the Overtime Elite league as a non-professional player in order to preserve his collegiate eligibility.[1] In his first season with Overtime Elite, playing for the Cold Hearts team, he averaged 8.1 points 6.4 rebounds and 3.4 blocks, per game, while being named the OTE defensive player of the year.[2][3] In his second year at Overtime Elite, he would decide to join the newly-formed RWE team instead.
Cyril was rated a four-star recruit and initially committed to play college basketball at Kentucky.[4][5] However, after the departure of John Calipari from Kentucky, Cyril decommitted from Kentucky and reopened his recruitment process.[6] [7] Cyril later committed to play at Georgia over offers from Georgia Tech and Arkansas.[8][9]
