JR Smith took a lot of flack when he announced his decision to go back to college to become a golf player. When Smith enrolled in North Carolina A&T, a lot of people did not take his move seriously. As a matter of fact, more than a few folks out there thought it was a joke of some sort.
Smith has been proving his haters wrong, though. Apart from being a formidable golfer, what’s even more impressive is the fact that the 36-year-old has been doing exceptionally well academically. JR Smith recently took to Twitter to flex his grades from last semester and they are nothing short of amazing:
“You gotta put the time in!!!” he wrote in his tweet as a caption for his photo.

That’s literally a straight A’s report card. And one “B.” Who’s laughing now?
Well, Smith isn’t laughing. He’s dead serious about getting his college degree and he’s doing very well for himself right now. Needless to say, this is the best way to shut up his doubters.
Smith last played in the NBA during the 2019-20 season with the Los Angeles Lakers. Unlike ex-NBA players who are hoping to work their back to the league, Smith appears to be completely focused on his studies. You love to hear it.
