Evan Smith

Evan Smith is a Vancouver-based journalist and lifelong sports enthusiast. Growing up, he played high-level soccer, participating in the British Columbia Soccer Premier League. Despite this, he quickly fell in love with basketball in high school and immediately began to support the Minnesota Timberwolves. Soon after, Evan decided that a career in sports media was his path, and he attended BCIT's Broadcast and Journalism program. A graduate in 2023, he is constantly looking to broaden his knowledge about basketball and all things sports. Now a site contributor with Dunking With Wolves since March of 2023, the young man is looking to build off that to establish the career he seeks. In his free time, you can find Evan enjoying the outdoors, spending time with friends, or attempting not to yell at his TV over whichever game he's watching.
