The Boston Celtics feature a number of different personalties on their roster.
There’s Kyrie Irving, the free thinker. Jayson Tatum, the silent assassin and who can forget Guerschon Yabusele, the dancing bear.
And then there’s Marcus Smart.
Smart brings an unmatched energy every time he takes the court, which apparently even bodes true in a practice setting.
Jaylen Brown, speaking at MIT, asked which Celtics player drives him the craziest. Without hesitation:
“Marcus Smart.”

Textbook Marcus Smart.
While Smart might drive Brown and other members of the Celtics crazy from time to time, he’s the type of player any team would want on its roster. Boston certainly felt this way over the summer when it inked the pesky guard to a four-year, $52 million deal.
Now, Smart will spearhead the Marcus Morris-coined “Bench With Attitude,” which will be a great asset for the C’s as they aim to fulfill their NBA Finals aspirations this season.
