197. Nick Smith Jr.: Rising Star - a podcast by Sport & Story | Arkansas Razorbacks

In many ways, Nick Smith Jr. has been preparing for this moment his whole life. The hard work paid off. Smith was a five-star prospect, a McDonald’s All-American, and is a projected top-10 NBA Draft pick.  But despite the accolades, he feels he hasn’t yet arrived. Smith cares about his roots, his hometown of Jacksonville, Ark., and his desire to impact others in a positive way. Though he’s battled injuries and adversity in his freshman season, Nick Smith Jr. is well on his way to making his hometown—and the state of Arkansas—proud.
