Smith is also a main studio analyst for the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament on CBS Sports and Turner. In January 2021, Smith received the 16th annual National Civil Rights Museum Sports Legacy Award for his dedication and significant contributions to civil and human rights and the social justice movement and for laying the foundation for future leaders through their careers in sports.

Smith won two NBA championships with the Houston Rockets in 1994 and 1995.

With an entrepreneurial spirit and drive, Smith currently runs the Kenny Smith Entertainment Group, a sports and entertainment events company.
