Haverhill native Noah Vonleh reportedly makes Celtics’ roster

Noah Vonleh has officially made the Celtics’ opening roster, according to multiple reports.

Vonleh, a 6-foot-10 big man who grew up in Haverhill, has a chance to carve out a role with Robert Williams and Danilo Gallinari out. The former No. 9 pick, who spent last season in China, posted 14 points and 13 rebounds in a preseason win over the Hornets.

In a clash with the Raptors on Friday – one head coach Joe Mazzulla said would run like a regular season game, in terms of playing time and roles – Vonleh chipped in 6 points and 4 boards in 10 minutes off the bench.
