Dallas Mavericks rookie Dennis Smith Jr. gave his fans a chance to get to know him better on Wednesday, as he held a Q&A on Twitter. While waiting to board for a flight, he asked his followers to send in some questions, which he mostly answered during the session that lasted for almost an hour.
The 19-year-old was able to reply to 40 questions thrown at him that varied from his favorite TV show, his favorite rappers, to the most exciting thing he's done since getting drafted in the NBA.
Here are some of the more interesting questions he replied to:

However, what surprised many was when he revealed that he is a big fan of Dragonball-Z, and was also not shy to show his nerdy side, which was something not a lot of people knew about him before the Q&A.

The session ended abruptly as he might have already boarded the flight, but Smith also said that he will be live on Instagram soon to answer more questions.
With the amount of questions he accommodated and the interesting responses he gave, the former NC State star could turn out to be a fan favorite in Dallas, especially with his impressive play, but will also depend on the success he'll have now that he is in the professional ranks.
