  • Final Evaluation Roger Smith, of Miami (FL) Chaminade-Madonna College Prep, is a 6'4 176lb 2021 prospect from our Fall 2018 ORL camp. College coaches on camp staff identified Roger as having college potential. Roger has a disruptive wingspan that gives the player the potential to be a lock down defender and can be even more effective with active hands/feet. Additionally, the prospect appears to have great positional size when used properly remains very advantageous on both sides of the ball. The player does a pretty good job of distributing the basketball. With continued emphasis of seeing the whole floor at all times, that skill will become a valuable asset. In terms of ball handling, the prospect showed a strong handle and has the potential to be a primary ball handler with daily work. Basketball IQ was one of the player's greatest strengths routinely making the right play at the right time. There was a great emphasis on making the right play, which will be a big advantage in recruiting and separating from others. A big part of IQ is shot selection. Roger knows when there is proper time and space to shoot the ball and should continue develop this knowledge through watching how this is done at various college levels. Making the extra pass and taking only open in-rhythm shots will make this player a joy to coach in college. The prospect displayed sound shooting mechanics that will continue to develop with form shooting and made game speed repetitions We recommend making at least 750 game speed shots a day off the screen(curl/fades), off the bounce, spot shooting, etc. The talent was a capable finisher around the rim. With continued work finishing through traffic with either hand, through contact, and developing more finishing moves, the player will continue to be an improving threat around the basket. The talented player has very good athletic ability for size and age. ScoutsFocus would like to see continued development in speed/agility and vertical development. Jump rope drills are great full body conditioning drill we highly recommend if not ready for a rigorous weight-training program. solid frame that should to continue to build year around, the player will be physically ready to play at the next level. The talent has a good motor (highly coveted skill by college coaches) and we would like to see them continue to make every possession an major priority and from what we saw, the player showed physical and mental toughness throughout camp. The player showed a great understanding and effort on the defensive side of the ball and should continue to focus on individual and team defensive concepts emphasized at camp. Roger has college potential with continued hard work and development both in the classroom and on the hardwood. Can play the 3; 4. AAU Team: South Florida Elite.
