Celtics shooting guard Marcus Smart had only one thing to say during his media availability Friday afternoon.
“Before we start, guys, my answer is going to be, ‘Justice for Breonna Taylor,'” Smart announced at the beginning of his press conference. “That’s going to be my answer for everything. Just letting you guys know that now. Justice for Breonna Taylor.”
One reporter tried to clarify, “So, if I ask you about team defense, that’s going to be your answer?”
“Justice for Breonna Taylor,” Smart replied.
Only one additional question was asked — about whether Smart was among the players to partake in a conference call with Taylor’s mother — before the brief session came to an end.
