The Boston Celtics have felt great about their second round draft pick Demetrius Jackson, and he has spent the beginning of the season on the NBA roster. Jackson has seen very limited minutes, with only one opportunity to actually get in the game flow. It comes as no surprise that the Celtics have assigned him to the Maine Red Claws (Via CBS Sports), putting him in a better position to develop, and wait around to bring extra depth if injuries come in the back court.
The Celtics have been destroyed by injuries all season long, they are yet to get a game with more than two of Marcus Smart, Kelly Olynyk, Jae Crowder and Al Horford healthy at the same time.
