J.R. Smith is Watch Taming A Sex Man Onlineknown as something of a lovable knucklehead among NBA fans, and for pretty good reason.
But no one was laughing when Smith and his wife, Jewel Harris, shared some sad news last month.

Smith and Harris didn't provide much more information then, but the situation was clearly dire.
A preterm berth occurs when a baby is born after less than 37 weeks of pregnancy, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The CDC says about about 1 in 10 babies born in the U.S. in 2015 was affected by the condition, which can cause serious health issues and even death.
That's bad enough, but worse still was that little Dakota was on the extreme end of that spectrum; being born five months early would indicated Harris was pregnant for little more than 20 weeks.
The Jan. 7 announcement by Smith and Harris was a somber moment for basketball fans. The news was doubly crushing because it struck Smith, who has seemed to mature a bit in recent years, just after he and Harris had been married, and just after he'd won his first NBA title.
On Monday, though, Smith updated the world with a bit of good news.
"Today is one of the greatest days of my life," he wrote to caption a photo he shared on Instagram. "Today I get to hold my youngest for the first time! GOD is GREAT! #DakotaStrong"
