Jabari Smith Jr. is Auburn’s long, fearless shot-maker with real two-way upside
In the 2021-22 season, Jabari Smith Jr. was Auburn’s do-it-all freshman force: 16.9 points, 7.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.0 blocks, and 42.0% from three in 34 starts. He separated himself with a rare blend of size, shooting touch, and defensive playmaking for a forward, plus the poise to operate as a go-to scorer without forcing the issue. The key fit question: if your team wants a versatile, high-motor wing/forward who can stretch the floor and impact both ends, Smith is exactly that kind of headache for opponents.
