Your Morning Dump... Where Marcus Smart's calf strain is only a grade one

Every morning, we compile the links of the day and dump them here… highlighting the big storyline. Because there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a good morning dump.

Positive news for the Celtics: First-team All-Defensive guard Marcus Smart has been diagnosed with a Grade 1 left calf strain, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. He will miss some time, but sigh of relief for all.

THANK GOD.

Losing to the Lakers in dramatic fashion last night was painful enough, so this news about Marcus Smart’s calf injury is welcomed like a hug from Kate Upton.
