Boilers in the Pros: Carsen Leads Celtics to #1 Seed

Last night, Carsen got his guaranteed contract over the course of four years with the Boston Celtics, something that rarely happens with 2nd round picks.

Today, he will lead the Boston Celtics Summer League Squad in the Las Vegas Summer League Tournament.

During summer league play, Carsen has averaged 18 Points Per Game, 2.8 Rebounds Per Game and 1.5 Assists Per Game. Some Celtics’ Fans were worried about the low assists, but he hasn’t been playing point guard, he has been playing the off guard while Waters has manned the point.

Carsen and the Celtics will face the #8 seed Grizzlies today, a team that drafted Ja Morant, but he has not played in the summer league, so we won’t get to see that match up today.
