According to ESPN's Malika Andrews, Smart began yelling in the locker room before exiting. Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe described the Celtics as "imploding," and described the conflict as "raucous as [he's] ever heard."

Smart did not stick around to speak with the media after the locker room cleared. Washburn reports that the team will not hold practice on Friday.
