    7-14 from behind the arc? Great shooting, but 14 shots from behind the arc? Is he related to JR Smith?

Smith…he does go to my church tho, and whats crazy is he holds the most threes in a game in AAU with 12 when he was in the 8th grade….Kid got game, his older brothers Bruce and Brandon can ball as well, they’re football stars tho…aw yeah he dropped 52 in a game last season and 30 in the state championship….Number 1 SG in c/o 2011
