WATCH: Celtics rookie Aaron Nesmith’s energy and effort earn him a role

“There’s a quote I like to say; ‘Be one percent better today than you were yesterday,'” shares Boston Celtics rookie small forward Aaron Nesmith at the start of the third installment of the Celtics’ team-produced video series “Lucky Rooks”.

Nesmith is working to earn floor time in a season with almost no practices, and little opportunity to learn on the fly given the team’s lofty goals of a deep postseason run. But he doesn’t let that bother him — instead, he focuses on his preparation and training to make the most of any potential opportunity to help his team win.

“Every time I get an opportunity out there, it’s just another opportunity for me to get more comfortable and allow the game to slow down,” explains the Vanderbilt product.

Watch the latest installment of “Lucky Rooks for yourself to get a window into how Nesmith’s inaugural campaign has been going.
