The career arc of veteran Boston Celtics point guard Marcus Smart is one that saw the Flower Mound native get bumped to play as the team’s shooting guard role in favor of other floor generals, only to truly come into his own now that the Celtics are leaning into using the Oklahoma alumnus as a point guard for their first unit.
