James Young just had a birthday. After the Celtics drafted some direct competition for Young in RJ Hunter, it's easy to look at the 6'7" Kentucky product as old news.

What birthday was he celebrating? His 20th. That's right. Your boy James Young just left teenage wasteland behind on Sunday, but still can't legally enter a bar. That's insane. Masslive's Tom Westerholm reflected on Young's age, and how Celtics fans need to be patient with the second year swingman:
