Brad Stevens might get a look this summer at a player who could become Danny Ainge’s final draft pick to join the roster: Yam Madar, who reportedly will join the Celtics at the Las Vegas Summer League.
Per international reporter Moshe Barda, Madar is currently headed to Boston for workouts before joining the Summer League team. The Celtics took Madar in the second round of last year’s draft with the 47th pick. A shifty ball-handler and slick passer with a strong defensive mindset, Madar fit a mold for Ainge.
“He’s a player we watched over in Israel play quite a bit, and we’ll see how it works out,” Ainge said last year.
