SALT LAKE CITY – Marcus Smart was playing in the Playoffs two months ago. Now he’s a part of Boston’s summer league team in Utah, where he began showing off his improvements and renowned physicality Monday night.

Smart and the Celtics opened up their summer league slate on Monday at EnergySolutions Arena against the hometown Jazz. Although they fell 100-82, Smart was undoubtedly one of the standouts of the night.

The point guard poured in game highs of 26 points and eight assists while logging nearly 30 minutes of playing time.
