UPDATE: Marcus Smart not going to Milwaukee, hoping to play by 'end of week'

On Sunday, it appeared as though Marcus Smart was on track to return to action against the Bucks Tuesday, but Monday's practice developments clearly altered that plan:

Marcus Smart participated in a few drills today, but Brad Stevens says he's doubtful for Tuesday's game in Milwaukee.

It sounds as though it's unlikely Smart will take the floor for Wednesday's home matchup with the Pacers as well.
