Some thoughts from Utah State men's basketball coach Tim Duryea prior to Tuesday night's home opener against Adams State, which starts at 7 p.m. at the Spectrum:
Question: What kind of player is the Grizzlies' leading scorer, Shakir Smith?
Answer: "He played at Wyoming and is really dangerous. He is capable of going on 10- and 12-point runs by himself and makes some tough shots. He is a volume shooter. He is going to get close to 20 shots up and can make all kinds of different shots. He reminds you of a poor man's Steph Curry.
