Marcus Smart may be about to make $52 million over the next four years, but he's not immune to everyday maladies.

Smart's press conference to announce his new contract with the Boston Celtics was postponed Thursday after he spent time receiving intravenous fluids in hospital due to the stomach flu, the Celtics announced via the Boston Herald's Steve Bulpett.

The team will schedule a new media conference call at a later date.
