NBA champion J.R. Smith enrolling at North Carolina A&T, may play for golf team


35-year-old is retired from the NBA and about to enroll at North Carolina A&T State University, one of the nation’s top HBCUs, to pursue a degree in liberal studies. Because he never played college basketball, he is also waiting on the NCAA to sort out his eligibility, and when it does, Smith, who has a 5 handicap, hopes to join the Aggies’ golf team. (PGA Tour)
