Evaluating Romeo Langford's potential with the Celtics

Romeo Langford had a forgettable first year as a pro. He battled injuries over and over throughout the season. Every time he seemed to work his way back, his luck would break the wrong way once again. Although he had little opportunity to show off, what the 18 year old rookie was able to showcase last season was his defensive ability. He showed promise and flashed some serious defensive possessions. Coming out of college, many Celtics fans saw him as a possible bench scoring threat, but after his first season, it seems his defense could be what earns him minutes and respect among this roster.
