Fans of the Boston Celtics were impressed by the debut of newest Celtics center Mike Muscala with the team, the former Oklahoma City Thunder big man logging 12 points on 4-of-8 shooting from beyond the arc as he helped propel his new team to a win over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday night.
It also caught the attention of his new teammates, including star forward Jayson Tatum. After the victory, the St. Louis native said (via CLNS Media) that he was joking with Muscala, and “he hit his first shot, and we were sitting on the bench, and I was like, ‘Man, that’s big-time!'”
