Cavs Assistant Coach Details J.R. Smith’s Soup Throwing Incident
Last season, J.R. Smith was suspended for throwing a bowl of soup at an assistant coach, which turned out to be former Cavs guard Damon Jones. Details of the incident were very unclear at the time.
On Monday, Jones joined ESPN’s Jalen & Jacoby for a sit-down to clear the air on what actually transpired on that fateful day.
