BOSTON (WHDH) - Al Horford and Marcus Smart will not play in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Miami Heat, coach Ime Udoka said Tuesday.
Smart sprained his right foot in a collision during Game 7 against the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. Horford was out for health and safety protocols, the Celtics said.
The Celtics haven’t play the Heat in the playoffs since 2012, and went 2-1 against them in the regular season.
