There were many reactions to the news that the Boston Celtics were hiring Ime Udoka, currently a Brooklyn Nets assistant, as their next head coach. The most curious came from the Twitter account of Jay Williams.
The former Duke basketball star and current ESPN analyst appeared to react to Udoka's hire on Wednesday with praise for the man's talent and resume. Udoka has been an NBA assistant since 2012, working for the Nets as well as the San Antonio Spurs and Philadelphia 76ers.
However, the tweet in question led with a rather curious claim, that Udoka is the first head coach of color in Celtics history.
