The Boston Celtics unveiled a freshly-renovated basketball court at the Cambridge Community Center with the help of the team’s No. 38 pick of the 2023 draft, Jordan Walsh. The Arkansas alum led shooting drills, signed autographs, and took pictures with local youth. Team mascot Lucky the Leprechaun was on deck for a dunk exposition, which Walsh emceed.
Walsh is a 6-foot-7 forward with a 7-foot-2 wingspan and a knack for defense who could crack into the Celtics’ rotation this fall if he can defend with the same intensity he did with the Razorbacks. For now, he’s working on building a strong relationship with the team and city, telling reporters after the event that he’s already “fallen in love with Boston.”
