Called for Traveling is a pro basketball journey that spans four continents, seven countries and twelve teams over eleven hilarious and adventurous years. After playing his college ball at Penn State, Tyler Smith had a path in mind of where he wanted his pro basketball career to lead. Bringing his own toilet paper to away games, courts made of concrete, and fully-geared riot police at every stadium were not part of his original dream.

Smith was a starting forward on the 2000-01 Nittany Lion squad that made that memorable Sweet 16 appearance in the NCAA Tournament, knocking off second-seeded North Carolina in the second round.

Now, he is a medical sales representative and is the president of CryoZone, which offers whole body cryotherapy; this process reduces pain and inflammation, he said, which helps with athletic recovery and performance and is beneficial for pain management for non-athletes. Tyler lives locally in State College with his wife, Cara, a Penn State graduate who he met while in school. They have three daughters.
