NBA’s double champion and last sixth man Jr Smith is now, surprisingly, a collegial golf player and a Pitchman Pro.
Golf: You didn’t get the golf until you were an adult, but said you were immediately addicted to the game. But do you want so much?
Jr Smith: Golf is the perfect mix of challenge and cold. This drives you mentally and physically, but it is also one of the most relaxing things you can do, especially when you hit the green with friends. I like how every day on the course is different, and you never play the same round twice. As this sport continues to evolve, Vibe is also incomparable – you are there with friends, soaking the sun, hitting shots, enjoying life. It is a completely different energy from basketball, but it is still competitive, and that is what tied me.

G: You are a partner with the High Noon beverage enterprise. What is the drink you like the most on the course?
JS: Oh, that’s easy. Got should be the icy tea of ​​eating high peach noon. When you are there under the sun and sink the birds, having a high noon in hand makes everything better.
G: After withdrawing from the NBA, you enrolled in North Carolina A&T to receive your college rank and, at the age of 36, joined the Golf team. You are an elderly man this year. What will you lose more about the collegial golf?
