Marcus Smart steals the show and carries his team to adidas Super 64 title

Posted Jul 28, 2011
Whether you play Smart at the 1, 2 or 3, Marcus Smart is an amazing player. He dominated the tournament with his winning mentality and near-triple-double efforts. There isn't a tougher player in America, and his interaction with his teammates, and officials for that matter, is outstanding. His jump shot has gotten better, and he's a bullish driver to the hole, but it's his facilitating that takes his game to another level. To be honest, if Smart isn't a McDonald's All-American and a top-25 prospect, we as scouts are missing the boat, plain and simple. It appears this will be a Texas and Oklahoma dogfight with UNC looking in from the outside. (ESPN.com)
