We learned of the Celtics’ purported interest in Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic last night, courtesy of Kevin O’Connor. I had a difficult time processing this news in the morning dump, given the Celtics’ current roster make-up.
The Hawks have expressed interest in Celtics guard Marcus Smart, sources said. Smart has played in six games since returning from a calf strain, and Celtics players understood his loss in the lineup during the month-and-a-half he sat out.
Despite the questionable shot selection, Smart remains a beloved Celtic due to his playmaking ability, remarkable defensive instincts, and, well, grit-and-balls.
