Nate Oats saw many times while coaching Clark on the Romulus High School team that won a state championship in 2013. The league Romulus played in was filled with elite point guards, including Kay Felder, Monte Morris and Derrick Walton Jr. — Felder and Morris eventual NBA Draft selections.
“I wouldn’t trade him for any of those three. I thought I had the best one of the four. Still do,” Oats said. “He went to the wrong spot or, I’ll say, it didn’t work out. But I still think he’s got it in him.”
Oats left Romulus to land a job on Bobby Hurley’s first staff in Buffalo. Clark was a highly pursued recruit who chose Missouri.
“He sacrificed a lot personally to do this thing,” Oats said. “But I’ve always known he’s a winner.”
