Butler Bulldogs DFS Spin
Myles Tate totaled six points (2-5 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one block in 16 minutes during Tuesday’s 68-66 victory over St. John’s. Tate finished with a modest stat line, but the junior brought sparkplug energy to the court. His 16 minutes marked a season high, and it’s possible coach Thad Matta turns to Tate more often with a postseason run looking unlikely for Butler.
