The physically solid Smrek—7-0, 250 pounds—played two seasons with the Lakers. Fortunately for him, those seasons came with arguably the franchise’s greatest teams, the back-to-back champions of 1987 and 1988.

Smrek, who averaged two points and one rebound in each of those seasons, is one of 17 Canadians to have played in the NBA.
