Terquavion Smith signed a two-way NBA contract with the Philadelphia 76ers earlier this summer as an undrafted free agent, and he put together 8 impressive games during this year’s Summer League.
The former NC State men’s basketball star scored 14.9 points per game, shot 39.4 percent from the field and hit 38 percent of his threes. He also grabbed 2.6 rebounds per game and dished out 4.4 assists per matchup.
His top performance was a July 13 matchup against the Hawks. The guard came off the bench to score 20 points on 7 of 10 shooting in 26 minutes.
During his Summer League tenure, which included stops in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Las Vegas, Nevada, he showcased his limitless range and an ability to attack the rim as well— two skills he sharpened while with the Wolfpack.
