Bates is one of the most highly talented players in Ohio and, without question, one of the best scorers in the state. Going into his senior year, I expect him to be not only a great leader for Pickerington North but also one of the focal points in the event. He’s a really smart, shifty guard who scores the ball with efficiency and confidence. His ability to create his own shot from anywhere makes him a nightmare to defend, and his composure shows why he’s ready for the next level.
