Bates serves as the inside presence for Tioga. Along with manning the paint, he has become very good at playing the passing lanes during games. What has resulted in a post player and defender who helps Tioga flow easier into transition. Bates can steal a pass and take it himself in transition efforts. He can also rebound it off the glass and find guards to get into transition. Because of his skills to rebound and defend, Bates is a high level defensive threat for Tioga.
