Bruce Pearl just landed another major talent.
Jabari Smith, a 5-star power forward and top five overall prospect from Tyrone, Ga. announced that he has committed to Auburn on Friday evening. He is the highest-rated commit in program history, taking over that honor from incoming freshman Sharife Cooper.

Standing 6-foot-10 and 210 pounds, here is Smith’s scouting report from 247Sports.
Smith is a face up four who has continuously grown in height over the last couple of years. He now has good size for the position to go with a still extremely physically immature frame with plenty of room to gain strength. While Smith has a jump hook and can post up, he is most comfortable facing up. He has a smooth stroke with range to the perimeter. Improving athletically and as a passer. Rebounds area well and has made progress as rim protector. Projects as first round pick with normal expected development.
