The former starting point guard came to Michigan for the 2020-2021 season after playing four years for Columbia in the Ivy League.
In his one year stint with the Wolverines, Smith averaged nine points, five assists, and he shot 41% from 3. He also holds the Big Ten tournament single-game assist record with 15 assists.
Smith went undrafted in the 2021 NBA draft, but he played in the G-League with Sioux Falls Skyforce after being selected in the second round of the G-League draft. The 5-foot-11 point guard averages nine points and four assists in 42 games in his one year of G-League play.
