B.
At the top of the trajectory (point B) the vertical component of velocity is zero. Gravity reduces the upward vertical speed to 0 at the peak, so the vertical velocity there is the smallest in magnitude. (If by "smallest" you meant the most negative/downward value, that would be on the way down, e.g. point C.)
