Although J.R. Smith isn't attending the Cleveland Cavaliers' minicamp this week, he's there in spirit.
LeBron James, who's hosting the camp, shared a team photo Thursday following a workout. In the caption, he mentions they're riding for Smith.
The free-agent shooting guard has yet to re-sign with the organization, so he's steering clear of its events. He did say earlier this week he hopes he and the Cavs reach a contract agreement "soon."
Tristan Thompson shared the same photo, noting in his caption that it's "not the same without" Smith.
Last season's championship-winning roster - minus Smith and Mo Williams, according to sources of Joe Vardon of Cleveland.com - reunited Tuesday at the University of California-Santa Barbara to begin prepping for its title defense.
