Former Boston Celtics center Aron Baynes’ agent Daniel Moldovan on All of Australia’s comeback bid

Whether he ends up returning to the Boston Celtics, latching on to another team, or ends up heading overseas to play in Australia’s NBA or beyond, the simple fact that Celtics alum Aron Baynes is even playing basketball at all is something of a minor miracle. Baynes is trying to work his way back to the NBA after a freak accident at the 2020 Olympics nearly left him paralyzed.

After more than a year working his way back to walking and more complicated maneuvers, All of Australia is looking good and working out for teams at this year’s Las Vegas Summer League.
