Cavaliers' Zhaire Smith: Back with Cleveland for camp
Smith signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Cavaliers on Tuesday, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.
Smith joined the Cavaliers last fall as well and went through camp before spending most of the campaign in the G League with the Cleveland Charge. He ultimately got called up and signed a 10-day deal in February but never saw any NBA game action. Smith could be in store for a similar situation in 2024-25.

Cavaliers' Zhaire Smith: Inks 10-day with Cleveland
Smith signed a 10-day contract with the Cavaliers on Sunday.
The Cavaliers will give Smith a look at the NBA level after he averaged 12.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.7 assists across 32 contests this season for their G League affiliate, the Cleveland Charge. Smith has shown growth as a spot-up shooting threat, knocking down 40.4 percent of his catch-and-shoot three-point attempts this season while also converting at an excellent 69.5 percent at the rim. The 16th overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, Smith could get the opportunity to make his first NBA appearance since the 2019-20 season in the coming days.

Zhaire Smith: Let go by Cleveland
Smith was waived by the Cavaliers on Saturday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Smith put pen to paper on an Exhibit 10 contract Sept. 15, and he was unsurprisingly cut loose ahead of the 2023-23 season. He'll be a favorite to report to the Cleveland Charge after clearing waivers.

Zhaire Smith: Does not play once again
Smith didn't play in Saturday's loss against Erie.
Smith has yet to debut for the Hustle this season, and it's not entirely clear whether he will suit up for the team. He averaged 13.5 points per game while shooting 53 percent from the field in 28 G League contests last season, so he should provide a boost for the Hustle if he ends up playing at some point before the regular season comes to an end.

Smith signed with the Grizzlies on Tuesday.
The terms of the deal were not disclosed, but it's likely a partially guaranteed contract for Smith -- a first-round pick in 2018. The Texas Tech product appeared in only 13 games over two seasons in Philadelphia and will look to revive his career in Memphis.

Zhaire Smith: Officially waived by Detroit
Smith was waived by the Pistons on Monday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Detroit acquired Smith from Philadelphia on Nov. 22, and the expectation all along was that he'd eventually be waived. The Pistons made it official Monday, parting ways with the 2018 first-round pick out of Texas Tech. Through two seasons, Smith has appeared in just 13 NBA games.

Zhaire Smith: Likely to be waived by Detroit
The Pistons intend to waive Smith (knee), who was acquired Sunday in a trade with the 76ers, Vincent Goodwill of The Detroit News reports.
Detroit sent center Tony Bradley to Philadelphia in exchange for Smith, a 2018 first-round pick who has played in just 13 NBA games while battling a variety of health issues over his first two professional seasons. While the 21-year-old would seemingly be an ideal developmental prospect for a rebuilding club, the Pistons apparently have other players who rank as higher priorities for spots at the back end of the roster. Smith didn't accompany the 76ers to the NBA bubble in Orlando this summer due to a bone bruise in his left knee, but he should be ready to go for the start of the 2020-21 campaign.

The 2018 first-round pick appeared in only seven games during the 2019-20 campaign and averaged 4.6 minutes, and he didn't travel to the NBA bubble in Orlando due to a bone bruise in his left knee. Smith will get a fresh start in Detroit, though it's unclear if he'll be healthy for the start of the season.
