Marcus Smart Leads Celtics In Scoring rotoballer.com Sat 8/1/20 3:32 AM
Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart had an efficient outing during the loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, finishing with 23 points on 7-for-11 shooting from the field and 3-for-6 from deep.

Marcus Smart Could Sit Out Versus Nets rotoballer.com Mon 3/2/20 1:36 PM
Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He sat out of Monday's practice alongside teammate Jayson Tatum (illness), so they could be dealing with the same bug. Kemba Walker (knee) is expected to return for this game, so Smart would see his usage decrease anyway. Brad Wanamaker could see more minutes if Smart sits, but he wouldn't have enough value to warrant ownership in fantasy formats.

Kemba Walker, Marcus Smart Both Questionable For Wednesday rotoballer.com Tue 2/4/20 6:22 PM
