Should I get him? · 12-team 9-cat
Worth adding
Fairly sure, though he's not far from the edge of what a 12-team league keeps.

- 25 minutes a game this season, off the bench.
- No games for CHI this week (Oct 31–Nov 1).
- When Smith sat since last season, he played 32 minutes instead of 28 (12 games).
