Cam Smith on Chicago Pride, Family, and Finding His Dream Job

Brooke and Dani kick off a cozy, fall-themed episode of Sideline with Halloween decor, baseball heartbreak, and a special reunion guest — Chicago native and new Bulls Pre & Postgame Live host, Cam Smith. From growing up on the West Side to playing college hoops under Matt Painter, Cam shares his incredible journey to landing his dream job with CHSN. He opens up about patience, family, faith, and Chicago pride, and brings his signature mix of heart and humor with stories about basketball, music, and life at home as a dad of two. The crew also plays “Hot Take or Hall of Fame,” covering hoops debates, sports movies, and yes — ketchup on hot dogs.
