CLEVELAND – Brad Wanamaker is only 10 days into his first NBA preseason, but it's already clear that he doesn't fit the mold of a typical rookie.
The 6-foot-4 combo guard has displayed high levels of maturity, leadership and basketball IQ during his short time with the Boston Celtics so far, which has made it seem as though he's been going through this type of process for years.
Well, that’s because he has been. As a matter of fact, this rookie has more professional basketball experience under his belt than more than half of the players on the Celtics roster.
