Scouting Reports
"He's 6’8 forward is a big skilled athletic post! Everything in the paint he finished above the rim. I like his ability to step out and knock down the three-ball as well as his short corner. He is a walking double-double.” – Phenom Hoop Report
“There’s a lot to like with Smith, who has all the tools to become a modern-day forward from the 3-and-D mold. Offensively, he mainly looks to get downhill and finish through contact, yet also shows perimeter capabilities and the ability to effectively spot-up without the ball. Smith is still growing as an overall shot creator, but he definitely has frequent flashes on offense, especially through the use of his quality athleticism around the basket. The idea that he could grow into a combo-forward with pick-and-pop potential is quite intriguing, and actually pretty realistic. That being said, Smith makes the most impact on defense, where he provides strong versatility and a consistently high motor. His length and athletic frame make him problematic for all types of opponents. The two-way forward will certainly emerge as one of the top prospects in South Carolina, regardless of class.” – Jeff Bendel Phenom Hoop Report - 2018

Scouting Report:
Harris made the move to Fayetteville’s Northwood Temple Academy this season after spending time at Hoke County High School in Raeford, North Carolina. He re-classed to the 2022 class and helped lead the team to a NCISAA 1-A state championship in February. He is currently ranked 7th in the HoopSeenNC 2022 rankings. The 6-foot point guard is explosive and can score from all spots on the floor. He has a quick first-step that allows him to get into the paint and make plays." - Justin Byerly, Hoop Seen-May 29, 2020
"The only sophomore on the first installment of this list is Harris, who could very well end up being a top-ten player in North Carolina’s Class of 2021 in the future. The lefty guard has size, strength, vision, athleticism, and three-level scoring capabilities, leaving him with virtually no weaknesses on either side of the ball. Harris might not have the status or reputation of other guards in this class yet, but that’s almost guaranteed to come, given how utterly dominant he’s been throughout the last calendar year. Once college coaches get on board, his recruitment should go absolutely crazy, as he already looks capable of contributing to a variety of different programs." - Jeff Bendel, Possible Breakout Performers at NC Top 80 - Phenom Hoops - Feb 28, 2019

Scouting Report "Terrance displayed ALL of the tools necessary to be one of the top wing players in his class one day. He is a monster in transition right now and showed the ability to make jumpers. As an athlete he was second to nobody at the camp. He is oozing with potential, Terrance has some work to do but with time and grind he can get there. Top 30 Game Selection.- Kellen C. Buffington, TB5 Reports, The Next Wave C/O 2022-2023 Standouts- 09/03/19
