Will Blake Griffin sign with the Boston Celtics for the 2023-24 season? That question is still without an answer. But we do know there is mutual love and respect on both sides of the aisle, even if a deal doesn’t ever materialize.
Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens recently confirmed that shared respect. During a recent visit to WEEI’s “Jones and Mego” show part of the WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund radio telethon to raise money for cancer research, Stevens spoke about Boston’s past and future. Specifically, he offered praise for Griffin, who served a key role as a veteran reserve for the Celtics last year.
