TIER 6 · #160 OVERALLDepth piece — #69 among guards

Marcus Smart is ranked #69 among 12 eligible NBA guards. He profiles as a bench or matchup-based option — draft late or stream when the schedule lines up. His final five games came in 5.0 points per game below his average. His minutes held steady (27.4/game vs 28.5 on the season), so the drop appears related to lower per-minute production rather than reduced playing time.
