Marcus Smart Will Play On Thursday
4 years agoBoston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (calf) will return for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has not played in a game since late January, but was expected to return shortly after the All-Star break. The prolonged absence will mean that Smart is going to be limited during his first few games back in the rotation. His return will mean less playing time for Jeff Teague and Payton Pritchard. Neither of them were reliable fantasy options even with increased playing time. Smart won't be a great option while limited, but could be a useful category player once back to full speed.
