Smith is a very good athlete who can slash to the basket with either hand and finish with either hand. He is also very good running the lanes in transition and finishing. A strong defender and rebounder as well, but his skill on the perimeter and his midrange game need improving.

Jerry Meyer serves as a national scout and recruiting analyst for Rivals.com. He played at Lipscomb University where be became college basketball's all-time career assist leader. Meyer earned Mr. Basketball honors in the state of Tennessee as a high school junior and senior.
