Commute: Tamar Bates to the Denver Nuggets
Welcome to the Morning Commute
Night two of the NBA Draft without any Tigers being drafted. There was a chance Tamar Bates saw his name called in the second round, there were several mock drafts which had Bates going somewhere in the late 40s to late 50s. But there are only 59 spots and it’s easy to go undrafted considering how many teams treat the second round.
However Bates was the first Missouri Tiger from this past season to find a new home in the NBA next year. With the Denver Nuggets.
