WALTHAM, Mass. – After being drafted by the Boston Celtics in the second round of the 2015 NBA Draft, Marcus Thornton traveled to the other side of the globe to further develop his game.
Now, following a season in Australia’s National Basketball League and a short stint with Boston’s D-League affiliate Maine Red Claws, the 23-year-old guard is hoping to make his mark on Boston’s Summer League squad and take his basketball career to the next level.
Thornton told media after Saturday morning’s practice that his season abroad helped him grow into a stronger all-around player as he made the transition from college ball to a league of men.
