It looks as though Marcus Smart won’t suit up for Team USA again in the FIBA World Cup.
While the Americans lost to France, 89-79, in the quarterfinal round of the tournament Wednesday, there are still consolation games to be played, but Smart will be relegated to the sideline for those contests due to minor injuries according to the Athletic’s Shams Charania.
Charania reported that Smart was shut down due to soreness in his calf and quad — the Celtics guard missed time earlier with Team USA due to those injuries — along with a hand ailment.
