Could the Boston Celtics have an underused option on their roster who is actually worth playing more than he has been so far this season? According to a new article by Bleacher Report’s Andy Bailey, they just might.
On hearing such a hypothetical question posed, most fans of the Celtics will likely immediately think of one of the team’s several young players on rookie contracts, and for good reason. As most coaches tend to, new Boston head coach Ime Udoka leans on his veteran players hard to the detriment of the development of his younger players. But the player Bailey is thinking of is not on a rookie deal even if he is still relatively young as a player at just 26.
The player the B/R analyst is thinking of is none other than veteran forward Jabari Parker.
