Where does the Lions report come from?
CBS News Detroit, on its 97.1 The Ticket station, reported that Josh Smith is a Lions fan. The quote above comes from Smith himself, but the outlet carries the claim, so the fandom is reported rather than stated in a profile or interview of his own. No date is given for the piece.
Does it match where he played and was born?
Smith was born in College Park, Georgia, and went to McEachern in Powder Springs, Georgia, before finishing high school at Oak Hill Academy in Mouth of Wilson, Virginia. The Atlanta Hawks drafted him 17th in 2004, and he played for them from 2004 to 2013. His stop in Detroit came with the Pistons, from 2013 to 2014. The Lions are in the same city as that team, which is the one point where his career and the report overlap. Nothing given ties the fandom to Georgia or Virginia.
