Bates called Durant “a big brother” and has used him as a player comparison with teams because of their body types and games. Both are slender 6-foot-10 scorers. As a sophomore at Eastern Michigan, Bates averaged 19.2 points per game on 41 percent shooting. He shot 33 percent from 3. He’s far less of a complete player like Durant is as Bates doesn’t score or rebound the way the Phoenix Suns’ star does, but makes for an intriguing option late in the draft. He currently weighs 182 pounds but is trying to get to 190 before the draft. Bates has already worked out for the Dallas Mavericks and Charlotte Hornets and interviewed with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Philadelphia 76ers and Portland Trail Blazers in Chicago. In addition to the Suns, Bates said he will workout for the Oklahoma City Thunder, Brooklyn Nets, Cavaliers, Blazers and Detroit Pistons, his hometown team. Tom Halmer & The Athletic

Kyle Lowry definitely has a really nice ass but I’d never get a tattoo of him on my arm I don’t care how nice your ass is. Seriously.
Another kd might be playing for the Suns bet lol
