Marcus Smart, the point guard for Oklahoma State, flung rocks at people’s heads six years before he rose to prominence as one of the country’s most admired college basketball players.
Here is a breakdown of his career from Dallas to the biggest basketball league in the world.
Despite tragedy, Marcus grew up in a close-knit household that didn’t often pout.
There was his mother, Camellia Smart, who has lived with one kidney ever since and attends dialysis three times a week.
Additionally, Todd and Jeff Westbrook were born decades before Michael and Marcus, to a different father.
Marcus ran faster than he had ever run on a basketball court or football field, weaving through alleyways to reach The Meadows, a nearby complex.
