2024 Draft Profile - Tyler Smith

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - March 18th: "A versatile frontcourt player with shooting and defensive upside."

Jeff Zillgitt and Scooby Axson - USA Today - March 12th: "Definition of a stretch 4 and as a lefty, he can pick his spots and extend shooting range beyond free-throw line. Ability to space floor, but improvement on defensive end could set him apart from other bigs in this draft class."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - March 6th: "Scouts debate whether Tyler Smith is merely a spot-up shooter or a more versatile, inside-out scorer. At 6-foot-11, a convincing stroke and strong finishing tools should draw top-20 interest regardless, but Smith has fans around the league who’d take him earlier than mid-first round."

Jeremy Woo - ESPN - March 5th: "His scoring is still largely dependent on the quality of shots teammates create for him, but he has shown that he can succeed in a simplified role -- and there's a place in the NBA for forwards with size who can catch and shoot, rebound and be in the right spot defensively."

NBA Draft Room - March 5th: "A bouncy and talented big man with a nice shooting stroke. Has looked like one of the best prospects on the Ignite team."
