Smith remains a free agent but still hopes to re-sign with the Sixers, Dei Lynam of CSN reports.

Analysis:

Smith is currently working out in Charlotte, focusing on improving the skills that coach Brett Brown told Smith to emphasize in his offseason workouts. He's trying to improve his three-point shooting, free-throw shooting, and finishing at the rim. It's unclear whether or not the Sixers want Smith to come back. They currently have Tony Wroten (knee), Isaiah Canaan, and Scott Wilbekin on the roster and capable of playing point guard, but none of them seem to have a leg up on the starting job going into camp. If the Sixers aren't satisfied with their current point guards, it's possible Smith could find his way onto the roster. If he does, Smith would be a good source of assists if he earned enough minutes.
