CLICK HERE TO LISTEN TO MWSU COMMIT JUSTIN BUBAK
Dave Riggert had a chance to talk with Missouri Western men's basketball commit Justin Bubak after he chose to play for the Griffons next season.
Bubak chose MWSU over Northwest Missouri State, Missouri Southern and Fort Hays State despite not having ever stepped on campus. The Lincoln, Nebraska native took most of his visits and received multiple offers last summer and fall, but he didn't have an offer from Missouri Western.
Bubak waited to make his decision until after his senior season at Lincoln Christian, but that's when the COVID-19 pandemic happened and he wasn't able to go on anymore visits. But Missouri Western did final offer the 6-foot-4 guard earlier this month and he said his connection to the coaching staff was the reason he picked the Griffons.
Bubak should make an immediate impact at MWSU as he earned Nebraska First Team Class C1 All-State honors three times during his career at Lincoln Christian. He led the Crusaders to a 22-6 record as he averaged 16.1 points, 5.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.9 steals per game, while shooting 55 percent from the field.
