Adam Fisher and Temple University announced that former South Carolina Gamecocks guard Cam Scott will join the team for the 2026–27 season.
The 6-foot-6 guard from Lexington, South Carolina, played his first two college seasons with the Gamecocks, appearing in 26 games as a freshman in 2024–25 before redshirting the following year. During his freshman campaign, he averaged 2.5 points and 1.3 rebounds, with standout moments including an eight-point performance in the SEC Tournament against Arkansas.
Fisher praised Scott as a versatile, high-upside guard with strong size, competitiveness, and a team-first mindset, expressing confidence that his best basketball is still ahead. Scott echoed that sentiment, saying Temple offered the best opportunity for his development in a supportive, competitive environment.
A former four-star recruit, Scott was once ranked among the top players in South Carolina and inside the top 50 nationally. He had a standout high school career at Lexington High School, where he scored 2,475 points, earned multiple state honors including back-to-back Gatorade Player of the Year awards, and led his team to a state championship.
He joins a reloaded Temple roster featuring several transfer additions, returning players, and incoming freshmen as the program prepares for the 2026–27 season.
