Expert Analysis
Greg Stein | Prep Hoops Scout
Brayden Smith Brayden Smith 6'5" | SF Peninsula | 2023 State CA-S is a tremendous rim runner and roll man. Smith runs really well for his size and often beats his defender down the court to get great position and capitalize on secondary fast break opportunities. His energy leads to success on the boards at both ends and he consistently creates numerous extra opportunities for his team in a game. One thing I would love to see Brayden improve is his mid range jump shot as I think it would really help him unlock and diversify his game in the half court.

Brayden Smith caught a lot of eyes this weekend while playing with Jalen Green Elite. Smith’s combination of athleticism and power isn’t something you see every day. The 6’5 slasher had a number of thunderous dunks and also made plays on the defensive end. Smith was certainly one of the best unsigned seniors we saw all weekend.

Brayden Smith Brayden Smith 6'5" | SF Peninsula | 2023 State CA-S is a a strong, athletic rebounder (specifically a good second jumper). Would like to see him develop better touch around the basket, but he attacks with aggression and it often leads with him being able to draw contact and get to the line. Another bonus for Brayden would be to improve his jump shooting from at least the foul line. Brayden had 18 points and 10 rebounds for Peninsula on Tuesday night.
