WALTHAM, Mass. – Isaiah Thomas’ goal is to play in the NBA until he’s 40 years old. While that may seem like a lofty aspiration given the grueling nature of the NBA schedule, the Celtics point guard is taking all the right steps to enhance his chances of reaching that objective.

Thomas is still just 27 years old, heading into the prime years of his career, but he understands that it’s inevitable that his body will eventually break down.

He’s trying his best to delay that process.

Over the summer, IT made some major adjustments, not to his on-court habits, but to his off-court routine, with the hope that they will impact his production this season and extend his career in the long run.
