Jalen Smith is a senior guard and one of Rice's most reliable scorers at 11.4 points per game. He has started all 25 games this season.
Jalen Smith arrived at Rice carrying three seasons of SMU experience. The Orlando, Florida native played 94 games as a Mustang — including 35 starts — and averaged 4.3 points and 1.6 assists per game over his career there, with his best season coming in 2023-24 when he appeared in all 33 games, averaged 5.9 points, and shot 38 percent from three. Rice head coach Rob Lanier signed Smith ahead of the 2024-25 season to bolster the Owls' backcourt, and the senior has rewarded that investment by averaging 11.5 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 2.3 assists while starting all 24 games this season.
