On yesterday’s episode of the CelticsPod podcast, former Boston Celtics fan favorite Gigi Datome joined the show to discuss his time with the team during the 2015-16 NBA season.
Datome never set the world on fire during his short spell with the Celtics, but he quickly endeared himself to fans worldwide.
“I still get goosebumps whenever I remember those times.”
While in Boston, Datome shared the floor with rookie Marcus Smart and recently acquired Isaiah Thomas, creating solid relationships with both of them. Datome expressed his sympathies towards Thomas while discussing Smart’s influence during his first professional season.
