High school career

Scott played basketball for McIntosh County Academy in Darien, Georgia. [1] His mother did not allow him to play sports unless he received at least a C grade on his progress report. [2] As a senior, he averaged 21.6 points, 14.1 rebounds, 6.5 assists and 3.5 blocks per game, earning Georgia Region 2A Player of the Year honors for his second straight season. Scott left as his school's all-time leading scorer, with 1,824 career points. [3] A three-star recruit, he committed to playing college basketball for Cincinnati over offers from Alabama, Clemson and Georgia, among others. [4]

College career

Scott redshirted his first year with Cincinnati. He was a reserve in his first two seasons, averaging 3.1 points and 3.6 rebounds as a sophomore while shooting 55.4 percent. Scott moved into a starting role as a junior with the departure of Gary Clark. [5] [6] Scott averaged 9.3 points and 6.9 rebounds per game during his junior season.

He became the first Cincinnati player to register a 20-point, 20-rebound game since Kenyon Martin in 1998. [10] As a senior, Scott averaged 11.4 points, 10.5 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.5 steals per game, collecting First Team All-American Athletic Conference (AAC), Defensive Player of the Year and Most Improved Player honors. [11] He became the first Cincinnati player since the 1982–83 season to average a double-double.
