Smith played high school basketball at Wauwatosa East High School, which retired his number 34 jersey at ceremonies held in 2007. [Witrado, Anthony. [http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=564643 "Tosa East gives Harris, Smith high honor"] , "Milwaukee Journal Sentinel", February 12, 2007. Accessed December 30, 2007. "But before Harris played basketball at the University of Wisconsin or for the Dallas Mavericks, he wowed fans, coaches and even opposing players at Wauwatosa East.... And before Tony Smith was recognized as a coach and high school basketball commentator, he and his full head of curls starred at the same high school before playing at Marquette and for six NBA teams, including the Los Angeles Lakers."] He then played collegiately at Marquette University, being inducted into Marquette's Hall of Fame in September 2006.
