*Probably one of the finest shooters to ever come
out of Saginaw. The three-year starter on Saginaw High's varsity cage
team averaged 23.3 points and nine assists his senior season.
*He was the SVL East Division's MVP and the slender
6-1 guard finished his career with 1,287 points.
*Tony did not stop there. He was all-league, all-area,
all-state, all-American and was named the state's top player (the predecessor
to the Mr. Basketball award) by UPI.
*After being contacted by over 400 colleges, the
crowd-pleasing long-range shooter chose the University of Houston.
*After his freshman season he transfered to the
University of Nevada-Las Vegas. He would go on to become one of the Runnin'
Rebels' finest players, averaging double figures the next three years.
*Following his junior year, the Cleveland Cavaliers
drafted Smith, but he came back for his senior season to co-captain UNLV.
*After averaging 17.1 points his final season,
he was drafted by the New Jersey Nets but was released. |
