James Young trying to model his game after Paul George, is it too little too late?

Of all the players heading into Celtics training camp, it's safe to say James Young has the most to prove. Here's a kid, drafted with the 17th pick out of Kentucky in 2014, who was revered as a prolific scorer. He had a prototypical body for a NBA shooting guard, and all the athleticism necessary to compete at the next level. The concerns with Young's game were strictly on the defensive end coming into the league.

Now, after two seasons of lackluster play at both ends of the floor, and a spot on the surging Celtics roster on the line, James Young needs to make a statement during training camp.
