The Boston Celtics announced that two way shooting guard Jay Scrubb suffered a torn right ACL during a preseason practice. Scrubb signed a two-way contract with the team this offseason after a successful stint at the NBA’s 2023 Las Vegas Summer League. The team declined to offer any other updates about Scrubb’s status for the season.
The Louisville was a standout player during a brief junior college career with the John A. Logan Volunteers before declaring for the NBA draft in 2020. He was selected with the No. 55 overall pick by the Brooklyn Nets, the first junior college player to be drafted into the league since 2004.
Scrubb was subsequently traded to the Los Angeles Clippers. He spent the next few seasons between the G-League and the NBA before landing with the Celtics this summer.
