Expert Analysis
Kendall O'Banner | Prep Hoops Scout
Johnovan Smith made his impact felt on the defensive end for Marlin Academy. He consistently took on the challenge of guarding the opposing team’s best player and did it with energy and physicality. Offensively, he attacked the basket as a slasher and finished well around the rim. His two-way effort and athleticism stood out throughout the weekend.

Marlin Academy P32 16u made some waves over the weekend at The Stage by upsetting Indiana Elite 3SSB 16u on Saturday and then taking Midwest Basketball Club 3SSB down to the wire on Sunday. A couple of other guards might have gotten the headlines and led in the scoring department, but Smith was an excellent, steady presence throughout the weekend. His explosiveness off of the dribble and ability to finish at the rim was a big part of their success.
