LAS VEGAS — Celtics Summer League standout Charles Bassey is no longer with the team, the Celtics shared ahead of Thursday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He was always slated to play just three games, the team said, and had prior obligations the rest of the way.
Bassey was one of the team’s most consistent performers through three games. He opened up Summer League with a 14-point, 11-rebound performance in a Celtics’ win over the Memphis Grizzlies, and followed that up with a 22-point, 13-rebound, 3-block performance over the New York Knicks.
