Bates already possesses a pro body. You can put her anywhere on the floor and she will be successful. A three level scorer but makes her living in the mid range game. She loves the high post area and the top of the key. She can take bigger players off the dribble and post the smaller guards with the ability to shoot over the top. Bates can improve her physical strength which would help her finish around the rim with contact. She also tends to drift during games and take plays off on both sides of the ball. When she plays with a sense of urgency this is one of the top talents in the country.
