It's been a non-stop tour for the Celtics' sixth overall draft pick; Marcus Smart since this past June. Besides playing summer league in Orlando, he was invited to be apart of USA basketball's preparation for the FIBA World Cup in Las Vegas. Although only on the select team, the rookie enjoyed competing against some of the league's elite guards.
A. Sherrod Blakely of CSNNE.com recently caught up with the first year guard in Portland, Maine. Smart was hosting a basketball clinic along with fellow NBA rookie Joel Embiid among others for the Seeds of Peace camp, as part of the 11th annual Play for Peace program.
