Boston Celtics

Smart (thumb) is meeting with a doctor in New York on Tuesday in hopes to be cleared for a possible Game 6, Mark Murphy of the Boston Herald reports.

Up to this point, Smart has been cleared for everything except full-contact work. If he gets the nod from the doctor, he could make his return during Game 6, assuming the series goes that far.

Morris was assessed a $15,000 fine by the NBA for publicly criticizing the officiating after Game 3's loss to the Bucks on Friday, Chris Forsberg of ESPN.com reports.

After the loss, Morris suggested the referees have been unfair to him recently. I'm expecting it. They knew what they wanted before the game started. They knew who they wanted to go after. So that's on [the referees]," said the Celtics forward. Game 4 is set for Sunday in Milwaukee.

Smart has been cleared to resume all basketball activities other than live-action, full-contact work.

Smart was cleared to shoot in early April, but has added everything else to his repertoire since then, minus full-contact. Coach Brad Stevens noted that once Smart makes that leap, that he'll also subsequently be cleared for game action. So, depending on how long the series against Milwaukee lasts, it's a possibility that Smart makes a return during the first round.

Rozier totaled nine points (2-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine assists, two rebounds and two steals across 31 minutes during Boston's 116-92 loss to the Bucks in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series.

After taking double-digit shot attempts and posting a pair of 23-point tallies to open the series, Rozier's offensive numbers were down across the board Friday. The 24-year-old's 28.6 percent success rate from the field was his worst of the three games against the Bucks, while his seven shot attempts were his fewest since back on Feb. 8. The downturn in playing time also had something to do with his reduced production, but the Celtics will need Rozier to bounce back in order to have a good chance of winning Game 4 on Sunday.

Brown generated 11 points (4-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 29 minutes during Boston's 116-92 loss to the Bucks in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series.

Brown enjoyed a solid shooting night overall, something that's been a trend over the first three games of the series. The second-year wing has shot no less than Friday's 44.4 percent against the Bucks thus far, but he'll likely need to get his shot attempts back into double digits to improve the Celtics' chances of success in Sunday's Game 4.
