New Boston Celtics big man Kristaps Porzingis said he wants to make the game easier for his new teammates on the wing, forward Jaylen Brown and swingman Jayson Tatum.
In his introductory press conference, he said he’s entering his prime physically and maturity-wise.
The folks at the CLNS Media “Celtics All Access” YouTube channel sent Bobby Manning to the team’s practice facilities to get the lowdown on Porzingis’ arrival in Boston on Thursday afternoon.
Manning reacts to the biggest question as the Latvian center arrived: his fit. He also addresses the other big question: The money he will earn in light of the new collective bargaining agreement. Team president Brad Stevens said Boston will accept CBA penalties while trying to win, and he has the support of ownership for that approach. That seemingly signals the Celtics will be busy when free agency begins on Friday.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what CLNS had to say about The Unicorn landing in the Hub.
