About Briana
Expert Analysis
Akiem Bailum | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Smith is one of the two seniors part of this year’s 5A Division 2 Socastee team and she resembled the seasoned vet she is on Friday afternoon against 4A Gray Collegiate. She concluded her day at the Myrtle Beach Sports Center with a 13-point effort against the War Eagles. What makes Smith dangerous is not only her scoring capabilities but her ability to make the right passes at the right times. A good number of those distributions can occur while she is in the transition game. Getting downhill quickly with the ball in her hands is another positive attribute to her game – as is the ability to make things happen from either midrange or long range.

Smith lost several teammates to departures and should see plenty of playing time this season for the Lady Braves this season. She played quite well back earlier this fall at the Prep Girls Top 250 Expo. Briana surely plays the game with a lot of confidence and a bit swagger at times. She will bring some havoc at times on the defensive end of the floor. She certainly doesn’t look to take plays off and plays every possession to the fullest.

Smith brought good energy and a lot of confidence to the floor for her age. She has a chance to play right away this season for the Lady Braves at the Class 5A level down on the Grand Strand. Briana was able to connect on some jumpers when she had time to set her feet.

Smith was a nice surprise here today with her play and confidence on the floor. Briana plays extremely hard and really takes pride in playing defense. She was constantly in hustle mode when she wasn’t dropping a 3-ball from behind the arc. Smith brought a great attitude and a willingness to work all day long. Look for her to be one of the leaders for the Lady Braves this coming season.
