<p class="text-gray-700">The 6'9 big man has continued to improve his overall game. Defensively, he is one of the better bigs in the state of Maryland. Protects the rim without fouling. Walls up, alters shots, and moves well. Offensively, he continues to get stronger, finishes well around the basket, runs the court, and can step out from time to time. He should only continue to get stronger and have a ton of potential.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Plays with such a competitive edge on the court, always looking to prove his game. Smullen impresses with his game, not only being confident from the perimeter but also making plays off the bounce. At the event, he was in attack mode in getting at the rim, scoring off the bounce, and finding ways to get to the free throw line.</p>
