What’s one reason Enes Kanter chose to come to Boston? Kemba Walker.
The Celtics center appeared on FS1’s First Things First on Wednesday morning, and talked about a surprise phone call he got from Walker, via Danny Ainge’s cell phone, as soon as NBA Free Agency opened up in June. Walker told him how much the team wanted him to come to Boston and how it great it would be if they joined forces.
Kanter, who was already interested in the Celtics franchise, the fans, playing in the TD Garden, and hanging out with the Mark and Donnie Wahlberg, was convinced.
