Former Celts New Career



I just found this on the LA Times site:
* The Clippers  have a new radio announcer for
                  broadcasts on new flagship station KXTA
                  1150. 
                        It will be announced today that Michael
                  Smith, a former player, will serve as the
                  commentator with Ralph Lawler handling
                  the play-by-play on non-televised games,
                  while Smith will do the play-by-play alone
                  on televised games. 
                        Smith, who starred at Los Altos High
                  and Brigham Young, has play-by-play
                  experience on Western Athletic Conference
                  games. The Boston Celtics made him the
                  13th overall pick in the 1989 draft, and he
                  played for the Clippers during the 1994-95
                  season after signing as a free agent. 
                        Smith replaces Rory Markas, whose
                  contract was not renewed. Markas is now
                  the USC radio play-by-play announcer.
