WATCH: Celtics’ Marcus Smart may have missed a career as a quarterback

Boston Celtics veteran guard Marcus Smart has an arm on him, it seems.

We’ve seen his telegraph passes go the length of the court before, but we’ve never really seen the Oklahoma State product like this — teammate Enes Kanter shared a video of the Texan defensive specialist launching a rocket of pass with a football from a pool on the Disney NBA campus.

Given the Flower Mound native played organized football up until he was in the sixth grade, it makes sense that the former Sooner knows how to throw a pass, but it’s pretty impressive to see the arm the unofficial Celtics captain has going for him.

Watch the video embedded above shared by Twitter user NBA Bubble Life of Smart throwing a pass in one of the pools on the Wide World of Sports complex in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.

If he ever gets tired of diving for loose balls and making his opponents’ on-court lives hell, he always has a shot at a career in football waiting with the passing skills he shows in this video.
