Vincent Poirier’s Impact on the Boston Celtics?
With the departures of Aron Baynes and Al Horford, the Boston Celtics have hopes for new signee Vincent Poirier to supply both energy and a much-needed defensive presence.
On July 15th, the Boston Celtics signed Vincent Poirier to a two-year veteran minimum contract ($5.1 million). A late bloomer to the sport of basketball, this is his first time officially making an NBA roster. Poirier was, however, a part of the 2017 Brooklyn Nets summer league team. On this squad, during his four appearances, he averaged only 1.2 points and 5.0 rebounds in 10 minutes of play.
