The Boston Celtics might be starting a season in which they hope to contend for an NBA title with an untested interim head coach, Joe Mazzulla, but in the eyes of former Celtics floor general Kemba Walker, Boston has itself a “great coach.” The former UConn standout made the comment in a postgame interview with NBC Boston Sports’ Abby Chin on Friday.
In attendance to see the Charlotte Hornets play the Celtics, two of his former teams, go at it in Greensboro, Walker spoke with Chin about the team’s new head coach for the 2022-23 season, the growth of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown and more.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what Walker thinks about his former team as it gears up for a title run.
