Location: #EBAAllAmerican Camp

Smith proved to be a steady play-making guard at the camp over Labor Day weekend. His ability to use either hand to attack the lane kept defenders off balance the whole weekend. Smith has a surprising burst with the basketball that gives him an edge in those situations. However, what makes Smith a productive player is the vision he has for the teammates around him and his jump shot making ability. Still an underclassman, we expect Smith to blossom into a solid point guard at Boyd County High School.
