Marcus Smart (foot) ruled out for Celtics in Tuesday's Game 1
Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart will not play Tuesday in the team's game against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Smart was listed questionable coming into the day due to a mid-foot sprain. Now, he has officially been ruled out of action for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals - teammate Al Horford is also sidelined. With Smart out, Derrick White and Payton Pritchard should see large increases in minutes and usage.
In 10 games this postseason, Smart has averaged 15.0 points, 3.7 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 1.1 steals and 30.8 FanDuel points.
