It didn't take J.R. Smith too long to get himself into trouble this season. The Knicks are just four games into their schedule. And yet, Smith was already just handed a one-game suspension by the league.

As you can see in the GIF above, Smith appeared to intentionally hit Wizards guard Glen Rice Jr. in the groin last night during the Knicks' loss to Washington. And as a result, he'll have to sit out of the Knicks' game against the Pistons tonight. SMH. Oh, J.R.
