Hochman: Why Mizzou's Tamar Bates was called 'best player in (MU-KU) game' per Bill Self
“Tamar was the best player in the game, hands down,” said Kansas coach Bill Self, whose team lost, 76-67. “We couldn’t guard him. He went around us, and he played to his size. We started small, and they made us look slow in that first half, for sure. He scores at all three levels, and he did a really nice job.”
