Duke assistant coach Chris Carrawell stopped by Lexington (SC) High last week to see 2024 No. 14 ranked Cam Scott. Less than a week later, Scott has scheduled an unofficial visit to see the Blue Devils.

The 6-foot-5 shooting guard will travel to Durham, North Carolina, on November 30. Duke will be playing Ohio State in the ACC-BIG 10 Challenge.

Scott has three junior year official visits set, with a fourth being rescheduled. He will visit South Carolina (10/22), Auburn (11/11), and Texas (10/25). Scott had an official visit set with Florida State; however, it had to be rescheduled due to Hurricane Ian.

Scott carries over 20 D-I offers. He was 5A All-State for the second time last season after averaging 21.1 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 2.5 steals per game. The 6-foot-5 shooting guard was the leading scorer for one of the best 16u teams – Team United – on the Nike EYBL Circuit, averaging 11.8 points and shooting 50.7 percent from the field in 15.4 minutes per game. 

Scott also led the NBPA Top 100 Camp in three-point shooting, knocking down 50 percent of his shots and winning a camp championship.

Scott’s 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, and rarely forces things. The jump shot release can be cleaned up, 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 and carry his team. I 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, and 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.
