The Boston Celtics liked what they saw from unsigned guard Jay Scrubb with the Sin City Celtics so much that they offered him a two way deal with the ball club even before the NBA’s 2023 Las Vegas Summer League had ended for the summer. And after watching his play in the five games Boston played in this iteration of the annual Nevada exhibition series, it is not hard to see why.
Starting in one of those five contests, the Louisville native put up 14.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals, and 0.8 steals per game with the Summer Celtics while turning the ball over twice a contest and picking up 2 personal fouls per game with Boston in Vegas.
Scrubb shot a solid 46.3% from the field, an excellent 40.0% from beyond the arc, and 77.8% from the charity stripe in 14.4 minutes of game time on average.
To see the best of his summer league play in 2023, check out the clip embedded above put together by Tomasz Kordylweski.
