According to statistics from HoopsHype reporter Alberto De Roa, the senior four-wing player Tamar Bates, who previously played for the University of Missouri, has completed a trial for the Los Angeles Clippers.
Bates was born in February 2003 and is a 22-year-old player with both offense and defense. According to data from the previous joint trial physical test, Bates' bare feet are 192.4cm tall, wingspan is 208.9cm, standing height is 261.6cm, and weight is 86.8kg. In the NCAA field this season, Bates played 34 times for the team, averaging 25.9 minutes per game, averaging 13.3 points, 2.6 rebounds, 1 assist, 1.3 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 1.3 turnovers and 1.8 fouls. His shooting percentage was 50.8%, three-point shooting percentage was 39.7%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 94.6%. Bates' performance and his comprehensive ability this season have also been fully recognized. He was also invited to participate in the G League Elite Training Camp and participated in the NBA joint trial with his outstanding performance in the elite training camp.
From the perspective of characteristics, Bates is an all-round backcourt player with very comprehensive abilities. Bates has rich offensive methods and comprehensive scoring skills on the offensive end. He has certain breakthrough abilities. His stability in outside shooting is also very outstanding, and his performance at the free throw line is also impressive. Bates' performance on the defensive end is also relatively reliable, and he is also a reliable defender. However, Bates is average in terms of athleticism and explosiveness, and he is also a mature senior player. His potential and his future development may be a bit worrying. After all, he is already a senior player and he has not performed at the dominant level in the NCAA arena. Everyone is also worried about his adaptability after joining the NBA.
Judging from the current situation, Bates has a chance to be selected in the second round, but everything is hard to say. Bates may eventually become a undraft. It is worth noting that the Clippers actually do not have a second round pick. The Clippers are still trying out Bates in this market under this situation, which may also explain two issues. On the one hand, the Clippers may consider deciding whether to buy a mid- and late second round pick based on the players' final pick during the draft; on the other hand, the Clippers may also pay attention to Bates' draft market. If he eventually becomes a undraft, they may also consider giving him a two-way contract directly. For the Clippers, the operational space is quite large. The key point is how Bates performed in the trial. Will he be the high-quality 3D puzzle player in everyone's mind?
