A 2024 Naismith Award Watch List honoree, Scott was also the Class AAAAA Player of the Year and will graduate as the only four-time All-State selection in program history. He concluded his prep career as the school record-holder for career points (2,475), the single-season record-holder for steals (100) and the single-game record-holder for points (43).
