There appears to be a very healthy market for Boston Celtics veteran point guard Marcus Smart ahead of the 2022 NBA trade deadline set to arrive this Thursday, Feb. 10 at 3 pm ET with reporting from The Athletic’s Chris Kirchner suggesting that the Flower Mound native is a target of the Atlanta Hawks.
Previously connected via a leaked offer including Cam Reddish that did not materialize before Reddish was dealt to the New York Knicks last month, it seems the interest on Atlanta’s part has not died with their proposed trade. Noting that the Hawks “have interest” in Smart, Kirchner relates that he has “actually heard some chatter on a Smart-(Bogdan) Bogdanovic trade framework in the past few days.”
