Celtics Roster Projection: The 2nd Unit

back in the news today. Last week we made our predictions and projections for the Celtics starters, so now we’ll dive into the second unit. Last season, Boston used a high energy bench mob led by Isaiah Thomas and Jae Crowder to propel themselves to a 24-12 record during the second half of the season. Their surge helped secure a playoff berth only a year removed from trading away the final pieces of the Big 3. With a roster even deeper than last season’s, competition for any minutes will be tough. Whoever makes the rotation will be someone who comes to camp ready to compete and accepts the challenge of going toe-to-toe with players of similar skill level and distinguishes himself from the rest.
