Lexington (S.C.) High four-star shooting guard Cam Scott has committed to Texas, he announced on the On3 YouTube Channel

The 6-foot-5, 180-pound senior chose the Longhorns over a final group of Alabama, Auburn, Ole Miss, Oregon, and South Carolina. 

Scott ranks as the No. 26 overall prospect in the 2024 class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He’s also the No. 7 shooting guard in the class and the No. 1 player in South Carolina.

The future Longhorn spoke to On3 about his decision to choose Texas.

Cam Scott Scouting Report

“Cam Scott is a lengthy wing prospect with a lot of pop. The natural tools are very impressive all the way around. Scott has a mature game, plays within the flow of the offense, rarely forces things. The jump shot release can be cleaned up a little, but the pull-up is smooth. Since the summer, Scott has developed his footwork and handle in the half-court, creating space to elevate into his jumper. Scott can take over a game carry his team. Would like to see him develop the comfort to take a more aggressive, alpha role on his teams. He is very efficient in his game, his ability to score with a less is more approach is mature. Strength will come, and he is tracking as one of the top players in the 2024 class.” – On3’s Jamie Shaw
