After a successful summer league in which he averaged 5.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.4 steals per game, Zach Smith proved that he could be a contributor at the next level. Though Smith played for the Atlanta Hawks summer league team, his play seemed to impress the Charlotte Hornets front office the most.
