WALTHAM, Mass. – A year ago, James Young arrived in Boston as an 18-year-old kid.
Now, he’s slowly turning himself into a man, both physically and mentally.
A visibly bulked up Young appeared in front of the media Wednesday afternoon following Boston’s first summer league practice. He confidently informed the reporters who circled around him that his appearance was no mirage.
“When I first got here [after last season] I was 200 (pounds), or 195,” Young said.
“I’m up to 220 now.”
Young’s body is clearly developing, and as Celtics summer league head coach Jay Larranaga stated, so is the shooting guard’s mind.
