Greg Smith

Greg Smith is entering his fourth season in the NBA. He split time between Houston and Chicago last season but played just 11 games after suffering a knee injury that ultimately required surgery. Smith never suited up for the Bulls before being traded to the Mavs during the offseason. In his limited playing time, Smith averaged 3.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 0.1 steals, and 0.2 blocks in nine minutes per game. He finished the year shooting 64 percent from the field on 2.5 attempts per game and 40 percent from the free-throw line on 0.5 attempts per game. Smith is a hard-nosed player able to play both the power forward and center positions. He's a solid rebounder who makes his presence felt on the defensive end. Smith can finish around the rim but won't be asked to do much else on the offensive end. He will partner with Brandan Wright to backup Tyson Chandler and Dirk Nowitzki and will be employed based on the matchups implemented by coach Rick Carlisle.
