JR Smith is one of the most interesting people in the basketball world. Throughout his career, Smith was known for his bizarre antics that would always get him into trouble with his teammates. Of course, we are talking about the 2018 Finals debacle when he didn't realize what the score of the game was. Either way, Smith was a solid teammate all across the board, and he has won two NBA titles throughout his life. 

Now that Smith is no longer in the NBA, he is looking to explore new career options, and as it turns out, he is looking at life in golf. Yes, that's right, Smith has officially enrolled at the HBCU North Carolina A&T University where he is looking to get a college degree. He is also in the midst of talking with the NCAA so that he can be eligible to play for the golf team.
