Terquavion Smith

Draft Notes

Smith is a lanky, quick, agile scoring guard who has burst onto the scene and is moving up draft boards. He’s got a feathery jumper, moves well without the ball and knows how to get his shot.

He does a lot of his scoring from mid range and out and isn’t a big time finisher in the lane, mainly due to his slight frame.

Can get hot shooting the ball but needs to be more efficient.

Has a somewhat low release on his jumper.

He’s not a very powerful player and could get pushed around on the defensive end but his scoring prowess makes him an intriguing prospect.
