While guest playing with Team Penny this weekend on the EYBL circuit, Smith Jr. custom college essays reviews again showed himself as a strong option at the point guard position.

Smith Jr., makes an immediate impression with his ability to get downhill in a hurry. He made a nice left hand on left side finish flying through the lane on the right side and adjusting for traffic once he get there. His handle is both slick and smooth.

Smith is an athletic slasher from the point guard position. He has plenty of “shake” and is “snake-like” in traffic where he can get through defenders in the lane. He is shaping up to be one of the better play-makers in his class. Smith’s achilles heel could be his jumper. In the games that I watched him, he did not show a consistent jumper. His head tilts back when he shoots.
