The Boston Celtics have ruled out point guard Marcus Smart (ankle) for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals versus the Miami Heat Monday.
Smart suffered what appeared to be a devastating ankle injury in Game 3 of the Celtics' series against the Heat but was able to return to the court after a visit with the trainers. Unfortunately, he will now miss Game 4 of the series as he continues to recover from the injury. Hopefully he will be cleared to return in the near future.
With Smart sidelined, Derrick White will start in tonight's contest. Our models project White to play 30.3 minutes and to post 27.1 fantasy points off of 12.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.7 assists.
