In 2015, he was named the Gatorade Basketball Player of the Year for North Carolina. Smith received surgery weeks later after the injury. Before the injury, in the summer of 2015, Smith competed on the Adidas Uprising Circuit for the AAU team, Team Loaded North Carolina (NC), alongside future NBA player Bam Adebayo.

On August 10, 2015, while competing in an Adidas Nations event, Smith tore his acl, but when he got home he realized he didn’t feel any serious pain or swelling in his knee. The doctors were able to operate surgery right away and they found out Smith has an extra ACL. He was originally ruled out for his entire senior season of high school but in between 2 weeks and 2 months, he claims he has become more explosive, meaning his vertical increased by 8 inches.
