Boston Celtics veteran guard Marcus Smart continued to improve as an offensive player in the 2019-20 NBA season even while assembling a solid case for the league’s Defensive Player of the Year.
Honing his ability to defend almost any player in the league for short stints, the Flower Mound native has shown an increased awareness of where his sweet spots are on offense without sacrificing his trademark defense, making his $12.5 million paycheck one of the best bargains in the NBA.
And the Oklahoma State product continues to outhustle opponents on both ends of the court — on 50/50 plays, diving after loose balls and sometimes simply ripping the ball right out of another player’s hands.
There’s few players who impact winning on a consistent basis more than Marcus Smart — watch the video above of his best play of every game he’s played in this season so far while we wait for a return to action.
