Celtics Injury Report: ‘Everything Is Fine’ With Marcus Smart’s Shoulder
Kemba Walker, Romeo Langford and Tacko Fall remain out
Boston Celtics fans had a brief scare Sunday night after Marcus Smart went down hard.
The guard attempted to take a charge while guarding Malcolm Brogdon on the right sideline with just over two minutes left in the game, and went to the locker room to get his shoulder checked out.
Fortunately, Smart came back with 1:17 left and all appeared to be fine. And he reinforced that Monday in his media availability with reporters.
“I’m good today,” Smart said. “Yesterday was just weird. Everything is fine. X-rays negative, so that’s a good thing.”
The NBA All-Defensive First Teamer also was not listed on the team’s injury report for their rematch against the Indiana Pacers.
“I’m fine,” Smart said. “I’m playing tomorrow.”
The rest of the injury report remains the same as it did ahead of Sunday’s game, with Tacko Fall, Romeo Langford and Kemba Walker all out.
Boston and Indiana tip off at 7 p.m. ET.
