According to head coach Ime Udoka, Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (ankle) is available for Thursday's Game 1 contest against the Golden State Warriors.
Per Udoka, Boston's defensive leader is "good to go" despite "playing through pain." In a matchup against a Golden State unit allowing a 111.0 defensive rating, our models project Smart to score 35.4 FanDuel points.
Smart's Game 1 projection includes 15.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 6.8 assists.
