In this highly unstable and unorthodox overseas lifestyle as a professional basketball player\, Smith draws readers in quickly with his humor and ability to share his clever stories that seem outrageous\, but are 100 percent true. His attitude and faith are tested relentlessly through bounced paychecks\, injuries\, and the seemingly endless frustrating reality of people around him speaking a language he could not understand. From Italy to Japan to Uruguay\, and even the NBA\, the challenges and adventures only accelerate as Tyler's wife and kids are added to the overseas equation. His unique story is highly engaging whether or not you're a basketball junkie.
