As a top point guard in the 2020 class, Myles Tate has attracted plenty of suitors. Which NCAA basketball teams made his final seven and how might he fit?

Now that grassroots basketball is mainly completed for the year, NCAA basketball programs around the nation are starting to push for commitments from their top 2020 targets. For some programs, they are already off to hot starts and using their current commits as extra recruiters. On the other hand, plenty of schools are also still hoping to land their first commit in the class. With regards to Myles Tate, there are programs from both categories lined up to potentially land his commitment.

Tate, who recently released his final seven schools, is a 6-foot-0, 170-pound point guard ranked at No. 103 in the class. He absolutely excelled for Upward Stars SE team this summer and that resulted in a significant jump of 75 total spots in the 247Sports Composite rankings. As a player, Tate is a score-first guard with the ability to make it rain from beyond the arc. He is a solid creator as well but is at his best when filling it up as a scorer. He can get buckets at all three levels and is definitely a high-major talent.

Appalachian State, Murray State, College of Charleston, Pittsburgh, Ole Miss, Butler, and South Carolina make up Tate’s final seven.

This is definitely an interesting group of teams for the “Palmetto State” native, but you can expect that each of these teams will be looking to add his commitment in the coming months. Tate has been steadily improving to this point in his career and it seems likely that he will just continue to add to his bag of tricks. With the way he is trending, Tate could be safely in the top-100 by the final rankings for the class.

Tate has the potential to be a big-time collegiate contributor, so let’s dive into his final seven schools with a bit more analysis.
