In a tweet and a report out of the NBA Draft Combine in Chicago, Alex Schiffer writes that the Nets have an interest in Emoni Bates, the 6’10” wing whose checkered college career has seen his stock tumble from a presumptive No. 1 a couple of years ago to a second rounder now.
The interest, Schiffer writes, includes having the 19-year-old in for a workout at HSS Training Center in the “coming weeks.”
Bates is at the draft combine meeting with teams as a projected second-round pick selling teams on his potential, which once made him the nation’s top-ranked recruit.
