Marcus Smart starting for Celtics on Wednesday
Boston Celtics point guard Marcus Smart is starting on Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets.
What It Means:
There was speculation that Smart would be suspended after he had an altercation with the refs at the end of Tuesday's game versus the Brooklyn Nets. The league apparently decided punishment wasn't warranted. Smart will be joined by Brad Wanamaker, Jayson Tatum (illness), Carsen Edwards, and Daniel Theis in the starting lineup on Wednesday. Kemba Walker (knee), Gordon Hayward (knee), and Jaylen Brown (hamstring) are all out, so Smart could see an uptick in usage.
numberFire's models expect Smart to score 34.4 FanDuel points on Wednesday. He's priced at $6,500.
