Smith tried but failed to land a another deal with a different NBA team so is now headed back to Cleveland.

The 29-year-old Smith came to the Cavaliers last season after three years with the New York Knicks and averaged 12.1 points, 3.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 70 games.

"Happy to say that I am returning to the Cavs! It`s been a long ride this summer but I can say for sure, well worth the wait," Smith posted on his social media Instagram page.
