The No. 1 and the No. 3 draft picks battled it out today in the Summer League contest between the Boston Celtics and the Philadelphia 76ers
While the current state of play in the NBA has been earth-shatteringly altered by Kevin Durant’s decision to join the Warriors, the future for the Celtics still looks bright. And for the Celtics and the Sixers, the future was on the court today playing in the Summer League.
The Celtics have stocked up on young talent, so there were plenty of players of interest in today’s matchup, including the entire starting lineup of: #3 draft pick Jaylen Brown, surprise #16 pick Geurschon Yabusele, second-year player James Young, and returning rookies Terry Rozier and RJ Hunter.
