Bote came into the season and showed that he worked on his game in the offseason and came into the year as a different player. He had his moments where he looked unstoppable, and we saw that when he exploded for 15+ points on multiple occasions and even finished off the season with a 22-point performance where he tried to keep the season alive. Bote filled it up as he averaged 11.6 points a game and showed he could impact the game in various ways. He put up 2.7 steals a game and also had 3.7 rebounds a game as well. He’s an impactful player who is an X-factor, and we want to see more of him moving forward. He makes his rankings debut after a solid sophomore season.

Bote finished with 10 points, making a strong impact on both ends of the floor. Quick and skilled with the ball, he consistently attacked the rim and created scoring opportunities for himself and his teammates. On defense he stayed locked in, staying in front of his man and applying pressure that disrupted the opponent’s offense. His combination of speed, solid ball skills, and relentless effort allowed him to be a constant threat, providing energy and playmaking that helped his team

Bote stepped up in a major way during January and became a key reason behind Prospect Ridge’s strong 6–1 stretch. As the second half of the schedule unfolded, he emerged as a confident playmaker capable of carrying more of the load and impacting games in multiple ways. He averaged 10.4 points while adding 3.7 assists and three steals per game, showing his ability to create offense and disrupt opponents defensively. Bote can score from anywhere on the floor, but just as important is how he controls the game’s flow and sets up teammates. His emergence gave Prospect Ridge another reliable weapon and added a new dimension to their late-season push

Bote’s efficient shooting from distance has leapt him into Prospect Ridge’s rotation in his first season at the high school level. A confident all around perimeter shotmaker, he has quick processing speeds to read the defense for his next move. Quick getting out in transition at all times, Bote is typically one of the first down the floor. 

Bote has posted efficient numbers to start the season with Prospect Ridge, already a dependable floor spacer off the jump. Posting 8.8 points and 44% from distance, the guard has been essential towards rounding out their overall floor spacing opportunities.
