Celtics' Marcus Smart: Remains without timetable

Smart (ankle) is improving but remains without a return timetable, Scott Souza of the Providence Journal reports.

Analysis:

Smart sprained his left ankle in last Wednesday's preseason finale and has remained limited in the day since, but coach Brad Stevens stopped short of ruling the guard out of the team's season opener Wednesday against the Nets. At this point, it appears rather unlikely that Smart will be available Wednesday, but more should be known following Tuesday's session. If Smart is ultimately held out, Terry Rozier would be in line for increased minutes.
