Celtics' Marcus Smart (thumb) expected to be out 6-8 weeks following surgery
Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (thumb) underwent thumb surgery on Friday, and is expected to return to basketball activities in 6-8 weeks.
What It Means:
Smart was expected to miss the rest of the regular season, and this timeline reflects that. Terry Rozier will play a big role the rest of the season, and Shane Larkin should also see more value.
Smart averaged 24.4 FanDuel points per game this season.
