From Illawarra to the Taipans
After three development seasons with Illawarra, including the 2025 championship, Yates moved to Cairns. His agreement provides for elevation to the playing roster in 2028–29. His strong Marlins campaign helped build that opportunity, but those NBL1 figures are separate from his Taipans statistics.
