Marcus Smart signs with the rival Lakers, Al Horford remains in a holding pattern, and other thoughts on the Celtics
Advertisement Smart agreed to the buyout this past weekend, but his destination surely made Celtics fans cringe. The 2021-22 NBA Defensive Player of the Year has agreed to a two-year, $11 million deal with the Lakers. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Smart, who was selected by the Celtics with the sixth pick of the 2014 draft, was the first key piece of Boston's swift rebuild. He helped the Celtics to the conference finals five times, along with the 2022 NBA Finals appearance against the Warriors. But after the Celtics lost to the Heat in the Eastern Conference finals in 2023, Smart was traded to the Grizzlies in the three-team deal that brought Kristaps Porzingis, and, eventually an NBA title, to Boston. Advertisement Smart's last two seasons have been slowed by injuries and inconsistent opportunities. He appeared in a total of just 54 games. But he is just 31, and if he is healthy he could become an essential part of a Lakers team looking to make perhaps one final run with LeBron James. The Lakers' backcourt of Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves is potent on offense but a liability on defense, and Smart should fortify that group. On Tuesday, Smart was asked what it will be like to face his former team as a member of the rival Lakers. 'I'm expecting a lot of boos,' he said, smiling. 'I'm expecting a lot of hate. And it's OK. I understand it.' Smart becomes the latest longtime Celtics guard to join the Lakers late in his career, following Rajon Rondo, Avery Bradley, and Isaiah Thomas. ⋅ All indications are that center-forward Al Horford is in a holding pattern with the Warriors as wing Jonathan Kuminga's situation drags on. Kuminga, 22, is a restricted free agent and has made it clear he is in search of a large contract and larger role. The Warriors tendered Kuminga a $7.9 million qualifying offer that he clearly has no plans to accept. Golden State could work to orchestrate a sign-and-trade with another team to recoup an asset. Regardless, it's unlikely that Horford's future will be determined until that first domino falls. Celtics president of basketball operations ⋅ Drew Nicholas should sound familiar to longtime college basketball diehards. The Celtics' new executive director of player personnel was a guard on Maryland's 2001-02 national championship team that included future NBA players Steve Blake, Juan Dixon, Chris Wilcox, and Lonny Baxter. Nicholas averaged a team-high 17.8 points as a senior the following season. In Boston, he'll help fill the void created by the departures of assistant general manager Austin Ainge and director of scouting Remy Cofield. Advertisement ⋅ The Celtics' sale continues to push forward as scheduled. Look for the NBA's board of governors to approve ⋅ The New Zealand Breakers of the National Basketball League parted ways with former Celtics big man Tacko Fall. Fall averaged 11.4 points and 6.6 rebounds over 18 games with the Breakers last season. ⋅ ⋅ Celtics big man Luka Garza, a Washington, D.C., native, threw out the first pitch prior to the Nationals' home game against the Reds on Wednesday. found a guy (luka garza 6'10 btw) taller than james wood (6'7 btw) to throw the first pitch → — Washington Nationals (@Nationals) Adam Himmelsbach can be reached at

Hornets' Kon Knueppel exits Summer League game with head injury
The post Hornets' Kon Knueppel exits Summer League game with head injury appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Charlotte Hornets went undefeated through their first four games at NBA Summer League. The Hornets earned a spot in the semifinals easily, squaring off against the Oklahoma City Thunder with a spot in the championship on the line. The Hornets, led by No. 4 pick Kon Knueppel and Jaylen Sims, played a dominant game. However, Knueppel exited with a head injury. According to the Washington Post's Ben Golliver, Knueppel injured his head while diving for a loose ball. He was able to get up and walked to Charlotte's locker room under his own power. Hornets fans don't want to see their lottery pick suffer any injuries. However, there are some, like Golliver, who are impressed. Knueppel dived for the loose ball with his team winning by nearly 30 points. He did not have to hit the floor, but he did anyways. Even though his play in Summer League has been inconsistent, Knueppel has shown flashes of who he could be in the NBA. Before he left the game, Knueppel was having arguably his best game so far this summer. Through 21 minutes, the former Duke Blue Devil had 17 points and two steals. Luckily for his team, Sims stepped up in his absence. The third-year pro led the way for Charlotte with 25 points on 10-of-14 shooting from the field. The Hornets blew out the Thunder 109-80 in the second NBA Summer League semifinal game. They have a date with the Sacramento Kings on Sunday in the Summer League title game. Charlotte has not released any information on Knueppel's injury or whether or not he will play in the Hornets' last Summer League game. Knueppel is the face of a 2025 Hornets draft class that includes Liam McNeely, Sion James, and Ryan Kalkbrenner. If their efforts in Summer League are any indication, Charlotte could have one of the best groups of rookies in the league.

Collin Sexton breaks silence after trade to Hornets
The post Collin Sexton breaks silence after trade to Hornets appeared first on ClutchPoints. The Charlotte Hornets scored big when they acquired Collin Sexton from the Utah Jazz. Even without securing the talents of Chris Paul, the Hornets aren't complaining. Consequently, Sexton is ecstatic about this new opportunity and has expressed as much, according to Rod Boone of The Charlotte Observer. 'Super grateful for the opportunity. Ready to come in and help build the culture and be a leader right away,' Sexton said. 'I feel like the last couple of weeks practicing and stuff, it's been a lot of fun but also getting used to the guys.' Last year, Sexton finished his third season with the Jazz. Altogether, he averaged 18.4 points and 4.2 assists per game. Sexton is entering a team full of young talent, including Brandon Miller, Miles Bridges, and LaMelo Ball. He is in attendance in Las Vegas for the NBA Summer League and emphasized the importance of supporting the newcomers. 'That is something that we've talked about,' he said. 'We want as many guys here to support the younger guys. As you can see, we've had an excellent turnout.' Additionally, Sexton discussed creating a family atmosphere with the Hornets. 'Whether it's on the court, off the court, whether you have questions about basketball, about life, we all are here, and it's a brotherhood,' Sexton said. 'We've got to pick up one another, and when someone is down, be there to encourage them when they need it.' In addition to leadership, Sexton is a stellar scorer and playmaker. He can drive to the basket and can finish consistently. Furthermore, Sexton can get the best out of his players with added assist totals this past year. Meanwhile, the Hornets are coming off a 19-63 season. They aim to ignite a spark for this band of young guns. Sexton is expected to deliver in that realm.
