In the Building: What Live Scouting Revealed About Caleb Wilson Against SMU
Breaking down the strengths, concerns, and context you don’t get on film
The first weekend of ACC basketball in Dallas didn’t just bring a blue-blood opponent to Moody Coliseum—it brought NBA scouts, draft implications, and a firsthand reminder of how thin the line is between projection and reality.
For the second straight season, I’ve been granted a full-season media credential to cover Southern Methodist Mustangs basketball, but this year feels different. SMU is officially in its second season in the Atlantic Coast Conference after a decade in the AAC, and with that jump comes a different level of opponent, exposure, and scrutiny. Blue-blood programs like Duke and North Carolina now populate the schedule, bringing not just national attention but NBA eyes along with them.
