Brad Stevens the point guard whisperer

In a recent interview with NBC Boston, Enes Kanter revealed that Brad Stevens often gets into pick-up games with the ball boys after practice. He’s canning threes and blocking shots. After six seasons with the Celtics (that were preceded with six years at Butler), it’s easy to forget that Stevens was a player before becoming a head coach. In four years of college ball at DePauw University, Brad Stevens averaged about eight points and an assist per game. By all accounts, he was a scrappy, tough guard, but only found his true calling after he graduated and moved to the bench.
