The Boston Celtics have signed free agent big man Wenyen Gabriel to a training camp deal, filling a void in their frontcourt rotation created by the trade of center Robert Williams III. Gabriel is a 6-foot-9 forward and center known for his hustle and defensive skill.
He has played for various NBA teams, including the Portland Trail Blazers, Sacramento Kings, New Orleans Pelicans, Brooklyn Nets, Los Angeles Clippers, and Los Angeles Lakers. Gabriel’s role primarily revolves around providing energy off the bench, playing solid defense, and contributing with rebounds and hustle plays. His signing is seen as a strategic move by the Celtics to bolster their frontcourt depth following the Timelord trade.
Host Jack Simone took a deep dive into the signing on a recent episode of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast.
