Expert Analysis
Donald Tatum | Prep Hoops Scout
Bates is the anchor for Tioga and their path to prominence is in large part due to his presence. He is a big body and uses it to control the paint on both sides of the court. His game is not built on finesse. It is all brute and power, making the game a brawl for any player who hopes for friendly competition. He wants to make the game ugly and win at all cost. He will score and impose his will from start to finish in any game and leave it all on the floor.
