Instead,\u00a0he returned to the United States and inserted his name in the\u00a02017 NBA G League Draft. He was selected with the No. 30 overall pick in by the Long Island Nets. The rookie guard was waived on November 2, but was acquired by the Westchester Knicks four days later.<\/p>\n<p>Tuach didn&#8217;t see much action in the first half of the season due to the guard depth. Despite the challenges of not playing much, the Knicks rookie stayed prepared for when his number was called.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe challenges are just staying mentally stable [and] don\u2019t get down on yourself,\u201d the Westchester guard <a href=\"http:\/\/thesportsdaily.com\/2018\/04\/10\/buay-tuach-discusses-journey-from-junior-college-to-the-cusp-of-nba\/\">said<\/a> in April. \u201c[You should] always be positive and just know that your name could get called at time. When your name is called, be prepared to go in and do the work that needs to be done.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The youngster had a career night against the Erie BayHawks in March. He was active on the offensive end where he finished with a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrispriczak\/status\/975080680995553280\">dunk<\/a>\u00a0and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrispriczak\/status\/975082453886033921\">alley-oop<\/a> in transition. He drained a couple of <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/chrispriczak\/status\/975085468143509505\">threes<\/a> en route to a near double-double of 14 points and nine rebounds. The Loyola Marymount product shot 5-of-7 from the field and 2-of-3 in the game.<\/p>\n<p>With his rookie season in the books,\u00a0Tuach will be weighing his options for next season. He is working\u00a0diligently over the summer with the hopes of accomplishing his dream in making the NBA. The 6&#8217;6&#8243; guard hasn&#8217;t ruled out a possible return to the G League.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After spending his final two collegiate seasons at\u00a0Loyola Marymount,\u00a0Buay Tuach&#8217;s first stop in his professional career was supposed to be&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":816509,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[605048496,605037397,703639074],"tags":[605048841,600456257,233536316],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.6 (Yoast SEO v22.6) -
