Five months ago, the thought that Texas Tech true freshman guard Zhaire Smith would leave school for the NBA after just one season was on virtually no one’s mind. Now, that scenario is looking more likely by the day leaving Red Raider fans to worry about what life without the phenom will look like.
Wednesday, Smith announced that he has entered the NBA Draft but has not hired an agent in order to maintain his college eligibility. He will have until June to finalize his decision meaning fans will likely have two months to fret over the thought of losing the team’s top returning scorer from this past season.
