TERQUAVION SMITH NEWS

Elite offensive showing in win Smith registered 33 points (12-21 FG, 6-12 3Pt, 3-5 FT), five rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 94-72 victory over Coppin State.

Impact Smith could've entered the 2022 NBA Draft but decided to stay one more year in college, and this is the kind of performance that will help him skyrocket in most prospect lists. A proven scorer who can make an impact from anywhere on the court, Smith has scored in double digits in every game this season and is averaging a robust 17.7 points per game. He's also shooting 41.4 percent from the field and 35.3 percent from three-point range.

Puts up 15 points Friday Smith closed with 15 points (5-13 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Friday's 68-60 loss to Pittsburgh.

Impact Smith has scored in double digits in every one of his appearances this season and always finds a way to make an impact on offense. However, he's struggling when it comes to efficiency and had another rusty showing Friday. He's making just 38.7 percent of his field goals this season.

Struggles from field Thursday Smith supplied 11 points (4-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Thursday's 76-64 victory over Dayton.

Impact Smith needed 13 shots and two trips to the charity stripe to end up with 11 points, and even though he hasn't been playing as well as he did last season, he remains a capable offensive threat for NC State. This was Smith's worst scoring output of the season, but he's still a player that has scored 15 or more points in each of his remaining five games to date. He's averaging 19.0 points per game, which is an upgrade over the 16.3 points per game ha averaged in 2021-22.

Scores 26 points in opener Smith posted 26 points (9-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), three rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals across 32 minutes during Monday's 99-50 win over Austin Peay.

Impact Smith was the second-best scorer for NC State last season and many believed he'd take the leap to become the go-to player on offense following the departure of Dereon Seabron. Even though one game is a small sample size to draw a conclusion, both his usage rate and how involved seem to suggest that's exactly going to be the case.

26 points in foreign tour game Smith notched 26 points during the Wolfpack's first foreign tour game in the Bahamas, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Smith had a team-high 26 points in the Bahamas and showed why he was one of the team's best scorers last season. In 2021-22, Smith's 16.3 points per game were only second to Dereon Seabron's 17.3 points, but he has since left the team to pursue professional opportunities. This leaves the point guard in a great position to take over as the team's top scorer in his sophomore year.
