J.R. Smith is hanging out with the Cavs like he has a contract and it’s kind of the best

Summer ‘16 was supposed to be the summer of J.R. Smith. He was fresh off of an NBA championship and a world tour without a shirt on, and ready to sign his next big NBA contract. Except the NBA contract has still not arrived. We’re now two weeks into the preseason with no sign of a contract, but that’s not going to stop Smith from missing a thing.

Here is non-Cavalier J.R. Smith ON THE FIELD before the Indians’ playoff game:
