BOSTON — All year long, when JD Davison was asked about his hopes of ending up with a standard NBA, he repeated one mantra: Be where your feet are.
“It’s not easy, man, especially playing in G League for three years,” Davison said ahead of the Celtics season finale on Sunday. “It’s not easy to stay the course... but I stayed the course.”
And, on Saturday morning, Davison was finally rewarded for a three-year G League career that saw him become the Maine Celtics’ leader in points, assists, and steals, win MVP, and even turn his Celtics teammates' heads with his performances at training camp.
