Marcus Smart received some terrific news over the weekend.
Roughly two weeks ago, it was revealed Smart was the only member of the Boston Celtics player to test positive for COVID-19. The guard reported no symptoms, and now, he’s already been cleared.
Corona Free as of two days ago. Cleared by Mass Dept of Health.
Thanks for everyone’s thoughts and prayers and I’m doing the same for everyone that’s been effected by this. Stay safe and stay together- apart!
