NC State 2018 4-star commit, Manny Bates, was supposed to be out for the season after undergoing shoulder surgery, but he must be a quick healer because he’s back and looks to be 100%.
Bates will be looked to for significant minutes next season as the Pack will likely be losing their entire frontcourt to graduation and/or the NBA.
The 6’9 big man is long, bouncy and full of energy and should fit in well with Keatts’ system.
