Payton Pritchard is having an impact for the Boston Celtics in 2023-24

Payton Pritchard, sharpshooting reserve combo guard for the Boston Celtics, has been quietly making a significant impact on the team early in the NBA’s 2023-24 season, contributing to their success in various aspects of the game.

Despite a rough start to the season, the Oregon alum has shown remarkable improvement in his defensive game and variety of tools on the offensive end of the ball court, and four key numbers sniffed out by NBC Sports Boston’s Chris Forsberg for his “Forsberg’s Four” segment underscore his influence on the team’s performance in their current campaign. When Pritchard is on the floor, the Celtics experience a substantial increase in their offensive rebound rate, for one. Pritchard leads the league in turnover percentage with an incredibly low 5.8%, for another.

But to hear the rest of Forsberg’s four metrics in detail, you will have to take a look at the clip embedded below.
