Will Taylor Funk make the Boston Celtics’ roster for the 2023-24 NBA season?

Funk models his game after Larry Bird of all people.

The Boston Celtics are working on their roster for the 2023-24 NBA season. Per CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning, the Celtics have signed forward Taylor Funk, who models his game after Larry Bird, to an Exhibit 10 contract.

Funk, a 26-year-old forward, displayed solid numbers last season, averaging 13.4 points and 5.5 rebounds per game while shooting a respectable 45.1% from the field. His 3-point shooting is solid; he hit 37% from beyond the arc during his time at Utah State. In the NBA’s 2023 Las Vegas Summer League, he played for the Miami Heat, averaging 3.5 points per game. Now, what could he bring to the Celtics if he makes the team?

The hosts of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast got together to talk it over on a recent episode.

Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear what they think of Funk’s chances.
