Quanez Smith (Detroit Pershing) was electric at the Carmody Classic, dominating as a primary offensive option and finishing with a 41-point performance that earned him Most Outstanding Player honors for the event. He filled the stat sheet and led Pershing with step-up scoring against top competition, showing a scoring instinct that defenses couldn’t slow.

What stood out most was his ability to create his own shot consistently and carry the offense when it mattered most. Smith’s scoring burst and competitive energy under pressure left no doubt he was one of the event’s most impactful players — the kind of performance that turns heads and builds buzz.
