Marcus Smart uncertain on return date: 'You can't tell your body what to do'

BOSTON -- Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart remains on crutches, will wear an immobilizing knee brace for at least another week and is uncertain exactly when he'll return to game action due to a left knee injury.

Smart, sitting in a locker room chair as he met with reporters for the first time since suffering a subluxation of the proximal tibfib joint during last Friday's win over the Brooklyn Nets, expressed hope that he might be able to return in a "couple of weeks" but stressed that the recovery process will dictate the actual timeline.
