Temple adds a versatile, high-usage backcourt scorer in AJ Smith
AJ Smith gives Temple a **6-foot-5, two-way guard** who already proved he can score efficiently and contribute on the glass, averaging **11.5 points per game** on **43% shooting** last season and **16.0 points** the year before at College of Charleston. He started 22 games and hit 20+ points four times, suggesting real on-ball creation rather than empty scoring. The fit question is simple: if Temple wants size, rebounding from the perimeter, and a guard who can carry stretches of offense, Smith looks like a strong add.
