Former Celtics forward Glen Davis is a champion once again.
After nine seasons in the NBA, including four with Boston, Davis joined rapper Ice Cube’s BIG3 basketball league this summer. His team, Power, finished atop the standings after the eight-week regular season and defeated 3’s company to win the league’s second-ever title Friday. The victory sparked a flood of emotions (and some tears) from Davis, who was a member of the Celtics’ 2008 championship squad.
“I wanted to say, I was dealing with depression before I accepted a contract with you guys,” Davis said during a postgame press conference with his teammates.
