Drafted by the Boston Celtics with the No. 6 pick of the 2014 NBA draft, Oklahoma State alum Marcus Smart carved a nine-season hole in our hearts no one will ever truly replace. From his cobra strikes to his uncanny ability to make winning plays for the Celtics, Boston fans will have plenty of memories to look back on from where No. 36 blew our collective minds on the basketball court.
To remember that near-decade of the Flower Mound native in Boston, fan videographer Tomasz Kordylewski put together the definitive compilation of Smart’s best plays with the Celtics — a total of 36 of them to match his jersey number, in fact.
The first guard to win the NBA’s Sixth Man of the Year award since Gary Payton Sr. did in 1996, and the last player in the league to turn his back on people in need, we have so much to remember Smart by in Boston.
Least of all the plays memorialized in the video embedded above.
