I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen this much hype around a Michigan high school basketball player ever, let alone a Michigan State Basketball commit.
We already knew that Ypsi Prep Academy, home of MSU commits Emoni Bates and Jaden Akins, would be featured on ESPN on Nov. 12, but on Tuesday, we found out that they will also be playing on FS1 on Nov. 21.
To make it even more exciting, Bates will be facing off against Lebron “Bronny” James Jr., the son of arguably the best NBA player of all time and Los Angeles Laker Lebron James. Bronny plays for Sierra Canyon.

The event will take place at the Allen Event Center in Dallas, Texas and it is being put on by NBA player Danny Green.
