The 22-year-old guard averaged 12.6 points for the Nuggets over the past two seasons.
He shot nearly 40 percent from 3-point range, the best percentage in team history for players with at least 100 3-pointers.
Smith was acquired from Chicago in 2006 in exchange for Howard Eisley and two second-round draft picks. He was drafted by the New Orleans Hornets in the first round and 18th overall in 2004.
