The 6-foot-8 small forward went undrafted out of Cincinnati in 2020. During his final season at the university, Scott was named the American Athletic Conference Defensive Player of the Year as well as a member of the All-AAC first team.

Scott had initially signed with Puerto Rican club Leones de Ponce last year, before joining the Salt Lake City Stars of the G League. He averaged 10.1 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.9 assists during his 15 games for the Jazz affiliate.
