Happy Camper

Talk about a dream day. Evan Smith, a 6-7 forward from Calabasas High School, was just happy to participate in USC coach Tim Floyd's basketball camp but ended up playing in a pickup game late Saturday night as a teammate of Trojans guard O.J. Mayo and against rapper Master P.
``I had no idea,'' Smith said. ``It was great. I couldn't believe it.''
Smith not only held his own in the games, he was one of the better players, hitting several 3-point shots and rarely making a mistake. He will only be a junior next season but opened a lot of eyes.
``It was ridiculous how quick everyone was,'' Smith said.

Scott Wolf has covered USC for the Daily News since 1996. A USC graduate, he covered his first Trojan game in 1984 for the Daily Trojan. Scott is known as the "scourge of the Internet message boards," according to radio host Petros Papadakis. Despite this moniker, there's no truth to the rumor he takes pleasure in antagonizing the "Internet geeks."
