Boston Celtics rookie shooting guard Carsen Edwards was recently scoped getting in some practice with a number of NBA players in Houston, Texas recently, reports Forbes’ Chris Grenham.
Along with Pat Beverly, Bruno Caboclo, Isaiah Canaan, Damyean Dotson and others, the Texan first-year guard could be seen getting in some training time with fellow NBAers in a video shared by NBA skills trainer Aaron Miller last week.
Edwards, who has had a rough rookie season from a shooting perspective, needs to get his confidence up from behind the arc, where he has shot just 30.9 % at the NBA level (and just 32.7 % overall) compared to his 36.8 % clip while with Purdue.

With the season restarting in Florida at the Disney-owned ESPN Wide World of Sport complex in Lake Buena Vista, Edwards will get another chance to end his inaugural campaign as a pro with some forward momentum.
So, getting in some reps with high-caliber opponents like these players should help get the former Boilermaker back on track to close out 2019-20 on a high note.
