Chris Smith, the younger brother of New York Knicks guard J.R. Smith, has been released by the Erie BayHawks, the Knicks’ D-League affiliate. The BayHawks announced the roster move Tuesday afternoon.

League sources told ESPNNewYork.com on Tuesday that the younger Smith had several run-ins with the BayHawks’ coaching staff, which contributed to the team’s decision to release him.
