Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Emoni Bates' story begins in Ypsilanti, Michigan, where he was crowned the Gatorade National Player of the Year in 2020, representing the first-ever sophomore to win the award. He averaged 32.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 2.1 steals per game that campaign. Bates was a consensus top-five recruit and committed to play collegiate basketball with new coach Penny Hardaway at Memphis. Then, Bates dealt with injury and adjusting to college hoops, prompting him to transfer to his hometown school, Eastern Michigan. After averaging 9.7 points as a freshman at Memphis, Bates rebounded with a 19.2 point per game season at Eastern Michigan, shooting 40.5 percent from the field and 33.8 percent from deep. Bates has the look of an elite shotmaker. His lanky, 6-foot-9 frame resembles Brandon Ingram, and Bates has a knack for tough-bucket getting. His lack of efficiency at Eastern Michigan was subpar, with scoring being the central selling point. Notably, he was excellent in Combine drills, sinking 25-of-30 off-the-dribble shot attempts to tie Penn State's Seth Lundy at the top of the leaderboard. Bates is an active defensive rebounder and can be revved up defensively. Bates has not been in an environment to comfortably and consistently showcase his game since displaying dominance during his sophomore year of high school. Bates' midrange prowess isn't a fit everywhere, but his upside as a microwave scorer gives him sixth-man potential. Bates could spend time in the G League, especially if NBA teams determine he needs to add weight or needs time to acclimate. All of the tangibles remain present for the 19-year-old to capitalize on his skills.

Makes garbage-time cameo
FCleveland Cavaliers
January 21, 2025
Bates (knee) played the final 5:36 of Monday's 118-92 win over the Suns, finishing with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and no other statistics.
ANALYSIS
The two-way player made his first appearance at either the NBA or G League level since Jan. 10, after missing time due to what was apparently a minor knee injury. He didn't check into Monday's game until the outcome was already decided, and Bates doesn't look as though he'll be in the mix for a rotation spot with the Cavaliers anytime soon. Expect Bates to rejoin the G League's Cleveland Charge once the Cavaliers get at least one or two of Evan Mobley (calf), Isaac Okoro (shoulder) and Caris LeVert (wrist) back from injuries.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could sign two-way deal
FCleveland Cavaliers
August 10, 2024
Bates could be a strong candidate to sign a two-way contract with the Cavaliers before the start of the 2024-25 NBA season, according to Craig Fedor of Cleveland.com.
ANALYSIS
Bates has yet to decide his future for the upcoming campaign, but he remains a restricted free agent since he's yet to accept or decline a two-way qualifying offer that remains on the table for him. Bates is a proven performer at the G League level, but the Cavaliers would be open to handing him a two-way deal and testing how he can perform in the NBA before committing to a standard contract.
