Kenny Smith – Antoine Carr

Kenny “The Jet” Smith was drafted with the 6th pick in the 1987 draft out of the University of North Carolina. Like Simmons he was made a starter right away and responded by putting together a season that led to him being named to the All-Rookie 1st Team. Kenny was traded in 1990 to Atlanta for Antoine Carr.
