For anyone keeping track, Smith will join his sixth NBA team in the past seven years when he suits up for Brooklyn on opening night. Despite an ongoing ankle concern, Smith is coming off the best season of his career. He finished just outside the top 150 in nine-category leagues, averaging 8.8 points to go with 3.1 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.4 steals in 25.7 minutes per game. After falling well short of the mark during his earlier years, he has been able to reinvent himself as an elite defender from the point guard position. His lack of perimeter scoring is offset by his assist numbers, making him a viable rotation piece for the Nets. While he isn't someone managers need to be prioritizing in drafts, he is worth monitoring as a potential defensive streaming option.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Set to work out for Dallas
Smith is set to participate in a workout with the Mavericks in the coming days as part of a veteran mini-camp, according to Grant Afseth of Dallas Hoops Journal.
ANALYSIS
Smith is one of several guards who will participate in the event, but given that the Mavericks need a stop-gap at point guard until Kyrie Irving is ready to return from his ACL injury, maybe Dallas will give Smith an extended look. Smith recently participated in a similar veteran camp for the Sixers, and he's looking to latch on with a team for the 2025-26 season. He last played in the NBA in 2023-24 and was part of the Real Madrid roster in 2024-25.
