Ypsi Prep forward Emoni Bates (21) dunks against SPIRE Academy during the second half at Central Academy in Ann Arbor, Saturday, March 13, 2021.
The Emoni Bates saga isn’t quite over yet, folks.
After he decommitted from Michigan State basketball this past spring, it looked like the Spartans had missed out completely and the dream was over. Heck, I was so sure that Michigan State no longer had a shot that I wrote about the dream being “officially” over.
Well, the tables have turned over the past few weeks as he released a top eight with Michigan State as one of the small number of college programs on his list.
