Brad Stevens: Celtics' Marcus Smart in 'Great Spirits' While Recovering From Coronavirus
Celtics head coach Brad Stevens said Friday that guard Marcus Smart is in "great spirits" following a positive test for COVID-19 last week.
"Joking as always," Stevens told local media. "We had a Zoom [video conference call] with the team, told the team we were going to give them their own space to hang out and have fun—and he told us to get off.
"So he's great."
Last Thursday evening, Smart said in a video posted to social media that he had tested positive for the coronavirus, but was asymptomatic. At the time of his public announcement, he had been in isolation for "several days," according to the Celtics' statement on the situation.
