Three schools standing out for Marcus Smart

Posted Jun 28, 2011
For Marcus Smart, he is far more likely to garner attention for being arguably the best perimeter defender in his class. Smart is a 6-foot-4 swingman from Marcus, Texas, with a strong build and a physical brand of basketball. At the NBPA Top 100 camp last week, Smart took Duke-commit Rasheed Sulaimon completely off his game by bodying him throughout the contest. Smart also added that North Carolina, Texas and Oklahoma were the three schools standing out. (CBS Sports)
