Marcus Smart has tested positive for coronavirus, the Celtics shooting guard shared in a Twitter video Thursday evening.
According to the Celtics, Smart is asymptomatic and “has been in isolation for several days and will continue to do so while being monitored by team medical staff.”
In a statement released shortly after the NBA announced the season has been suspended, the Celtics said players and staff would self-quarantine upon returning from Milwaukee on Thursday. The team also said it has been in “constant communication” with Massachusetts Department of Public Health officials.
“We are exercising an abundance of caution in taking every measure to be vigilant and safe,” the statement read.
