The turnaround Marcus Smart has made not only on the court, but in the fantasy atmosphere has been one of the absorbing narratives of the season. There are very few owners willing to trade him, seeing how they most likely drafted him in a later rounds, and this is the first time over the past four seasons that Smart has been posting top 100 production. His explosion versus Phoenix bumped him up to 7th in over the previous week, and outside of the Lakers game, he's on the upswing.Smart has always...

Smart finished with a career-high 37 points, having knocked a career-best 11 triples (which also set a franchise record) during a performance that can be described as nothing short of Hardenian in its totality. Smart shot 13-for-25 from the floor overall, including ...

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (ankle) will play in Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He rolled his ankle during Thursday's contest, but seems to be fine. Jaylen Brown (thumb) has been ruled out, while Kemba Walker (knee) is questionable for this one. The Celtics could be thin on depth, meaning Smart would be a reliable DFS option because his usage would skyrocket without Brown or Walker on the court.

Along with his 24 points, Smart also contributed three steals, but only one rebound and one assist. It is the first time Smart has even scored above ...

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) will return for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's been sidelined since early December due to an eye infection that spread into both of his eyes.

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This was expected as Smart continues to deal with eye infections in both his eyes. It sounds like Smart wants to get back on the court by the end of the month. Until then, Gordon Hayward (foot) and Brad Wanamaker should see the biggest benefit in playing time. Hayward is solid fantasy asset if he can actually stay on the court.

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Head coach Brad Stevens said the medical staff said that Smart's eye infection is one of the worst they've seen. It doesn't sound like Smart is going to be on the court anytime soon. There's a good chance that Smart misses the rest of December, but we'll see how he progresses. Brad Wanamaker will see an uptick in playing time, but he's only a deep league option.
