Celtics' Marcus Smart: Expects to play Wednesday

Smart (ankle) said he will play in Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Scott Souza of GateHouse Media reports.

Smart has been yet to see the floor through the first three games of the regular season, but he should be ready to go on Wednesday night. If Smart plays without any restrictions, he should resume his role as the first guard off the bench in relief of either Isaiah Thomas or Avery Bradley. This would send Terry Rozier, who has served as the team's backup point guard in Smart's absence, back to more of a reserve role.
