High-energy defensive specialist known for relentless hustle, loud on-court presence, and the ability to disrupt opponents. Brings intensity, leadership, and a team-first mentality every game.

I’m Steven W. Smith, Jr., a 6’6” wing in the Class of 2026 who plays with relentless energy and a love for competition. My game is built on defense, hustle, and intensity—whether I’m locking down my assignment, crashing the boards, or sparking momentum with my voice and presence on the floor.

Over my high school career, I’ve competed at Empowering Others Prep and will be finishing my senior year at Dulles HS, sharpening my skills against top talent and continuing to grow as a leader. I pride myself on being the loudest on defense, bringing energy that fuels my team, and setting a tone that opponents can’t ignore.

Basketball has taught me discipline, resilience, and the value of hard work. My goal is to bring the same mindset and impact to the next level, helping my future team win games and build a winning culture. Thank you for taking the time to learn about me—I’m ready to show you what Big Steve Energy can do.
