Marcus Smart, the wing version of Tyler Hansbrough

Posted Jul 26, 2011
Marcus Smart (Flower Mound, Texas/Marcus), 2012, SF, 6-foot-4, 200 pounds: He is an All-American who is consumed with winning. Capable of finishing with both hands at the rim, running a team and scoring as needed, he's one of the only wings in the class with a perimeter and post-up game. He's as unselfish a player as there is in the 2012 contingent. Others have bigger ceilings, but he is likely to win more games in college than anyone else. Think of him as the wing version of Tyler Hansbrough. (ESPN.com)
