Early life and high school career

Gravett was born in Villa Rica, Georgia but was mainly raised in Atlanta, Georgia. He is the son of Chris Gravett and Aniya Lamyotte. His parents were separated and his mother was military so he has lived all over. He spent two years in Italy, and spent several summers in Germany. [1]

Gravett attended Robert S. Alexander High School in Douglasville, Georgia. As a senior, he scored a career-high 46 points in a state tournament semifinal loss. He was named the Georgia Class 4A Player of the Year by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, an All-Metro selection by the Atlanta Tipoff Club, and was picked to play in the GACA All-Star Game. Gravett originally signed with Gardner–Webb out of high school before deciding to do a prep year at the Hargrave Military Academy. He committed to Louisiana-Lafayette in November 2014.

As a junior, Gravett averaged 7.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 3.6 assists per game as South Carolina missed the postseason. In his senior season, the addition of transfer Tre Cambell and freshmen A. J. Lawson and T.J. Moss allowed Gravett to move to shooting guard, and he had 22 points in a win against Florida. [5] He was teased by the Florida student section for his hair, as they chanted "Blooming Onion". [6] Gravett started five of 32 games as a senior, averaging 11.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists per game, while shooting 39.9 percent from behind the arc and led the Gamecocks with 65 three-pointers.
