In Redefined: J.R. Smith, retired NBA star J.R. Smith restarts his life and career after being an NBA player for nearly two decades. Selected in the NBA draft at only 19, Smith has won two NBA championships, with the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2016 and with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020. Later that year, he retired from the NBA and began to pursue a liberal arts studies degree at North Carolina A&T State University, the country’s largest Historically Black University. Even more incredible, he takes up a new athletic passion – golf.
His story is the subject of Amazon’s new documentary series, Redefined: J.R. Smith.
