This is a good precedent to set for younger players. You can use your money and resources to get an education and create a life after basketball. Great to see from the Henny God himself
I just think it is awesome that a person like him, older, champion, self made millionaire, just took all of his ego out, and went to college. There are not many people in the world that will go out of their comfort zone and do things like that, and also he comes to this with the perspective of an opportunity. Much respect to him 👏
A lot of players who are considered "dumb" on the basketball are actually academically good. McGee and Russ are solid students but makes dumb decisions from time to time on the court.
@@PunjabiPiccolo btw It's not illegal to take tests high to get high scores for sure but from the competition standpoint it's like doping in High-school to jump higher in high jump. I guess some would argue from the moral standpoint too.
Always was one of my favorite players. Those old Cavs team with Bron, Kyrie, JR, Shump, and others were special. Glad to see my man succeeding. You'll always be on ny NBA 2k Myteam as my clutch shooter bro lol.
I’m really glad he brought up being young and having ADD/ADHD as a kid and how tough it was to learn. That’s something a lot of people don’t talk about, like WHY kids have a hard time.
Shout out to you J R Smith, "CONGRATULATIONS", and much respect for your decisions and the continuation of your education. Without a doubt you will be missed and we thank you for all of your highlight entertaining thrills while you are in the NBA. May you continue to have much success and blessings 🙏👍💯%,. And set an example to the Young generation that if you put your mind your heart and have faith you can achieve anything.
Wasn’t he mad at D.Wade because he was coming off the bench? Lol. But JR was nice for Cavs in that 2016 finals. He had some some nights in those playoffs he was on fire
Hoping for NBA Star outreach to the thousands of young men chewed up and spit out on the extremely difficult path of making a successful life in basketball.
HOLD UP!!!! Did this dude just say he can buy a basketball for $5😳😩 bruh Spaulding has been atleast $30 since 2001 my g 😂😩 my guy j.R was shooting with a dodge ball 👏🏽✊🏽
Wade Why do you let Gabrielle throw a dress on your son Im sure she has everything to do with that decision You know how they get down in hollywood But then again your probably with it to

Smoke God !!!
Or you could invest the money and do other jobs without paying the overrated American school system.
Hennything is possible
Not the Henny God?! 🤣🤣 The shirtless, blasted 🖋having, parade prancing, turnt up one! Lol
JR! You have grown so much! Great role model for how education can mature, refine, and enhance us. I am so very proud of you brother!! 👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾
*from "you tryna get the pipe" to 4.0GPA. What an inspiration*
Fun fact, tryna means faceplant in norwegian.
You can have 4.0 GPA and still "you tryna get thr pipe" energy.. both things aren't mutually exclusive 🤣🤣
One of my favorite shooting guards I loved watching him when he was in Denver as a kid with Melo and K-Mart.
Same here! He was my favorite active player all the way till retirement

Never knew JR was this well-spoken. Its amazing what a meme can do to you. Well done JR Smith! Props.
What stop using meme to define a person propaganda is something to be aware of

He’s been getting interviews since High school he was drafted out of hs
As somebody who loved JR even when we was acting a fool on the Nuggets, this man is the definition of inspiration.
Im so proud and happy for JR. Well deserved bro!!
This was a great interview. JR is so well spoken, proud of this dude.
From Henny Smith to the educated golfer Smith, he is an inspiration!
JR when asked how he managed to get a 4.0 GPA:
"I figured if I study high, take the test high, get high scores."
Thats true for some it helps them focus
@@BigCyan It's a reference to the movie How High but yeah I agree with you
Good one. 🤣👍

Well said Dwayne wade 💪🏾
Maybe Ben Simmons should also consider going back to school until things settle down and his carreer gets back in place. Great job to JR Smith!
Nah! Simmons don’t want to put himself in a situation where he’s gonna get clowned
The guy made a doco called one and done...he ain't going back 😂
That's a beautiful wonderful thing. Kudos to JR. Life is about constant challenges and making yourself better every moment, every day.

wow, jr is pretty articulate when he's not boozed up
JR Smith had some great mixtapes in the early years of TH-cam 💪🏾
I'm proud of JR keep it 💯up

Quicc glance thought this was Scottie
How this man got a 4.0 and I struggle to get a 3.0
gonna talk about the 4.0 gpa tweet but gonna ignore the 10 day contract tweet?
4.0 GPA? There's no way JR and I are doing the same level classes.
LFG..
JR getting the young college girls
Bruh said writing papers; something I never did before lol. What about high school 🤔
JR lookin like Pippin
Did I forget something here, because last time i checked JR Smith had a post on IG or Twitter about Gabrielle Union is Hot then DWade respond hahaha.
You’re thinking Jimmy Butler

what's J.R. majoring in?
Wade Why do you let Gabrielle throw a dress on your son
Im sure she has everything to do with that decision
You know how they get down in hollywood But then again your probably with it to
JR has already been about higher education 😤
takes a real person to advance their life even with all that money. he wants to educate himself and prove hes not just a dumb high baller.
Hennything's possible
JR kinda look like Scottie Pippen
I thought he was pippen for a moment 😭
Bro stg NBA culture just hears a phrase and runs it into the ground. Right now its "giving dudes their flowers durrrhurrrRrr"
thanks to NIL, jr can play collegiate golf. in the past, he would have been classified as a professional athlete and not eligible.
A $5 basketball??? I used to jam my fingers on those all the time. I hated those!
I can't even get a 3.0 😐
Jr lookin like a henneyd out Scottie pippen
