It might seem like it was just yesterday that star Boston Celtics forwards Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown were getting their feet wet in the NBA after being drafted by the Celtics. But it has been well over a half-decade since the most recent of the two was drafted, and as established stars, incoming prospects have been looking to the Jays to help guide their own development.
Such is the case with Houston’s Jarace Walker, who says he has modeled his game on the Boston stars ahead of being taken — almost certainly — in the lottery of the 2023 NBA draft.
While he is almost certainly out of reach of the Celtics themselves barring an unexpected draft night trade, you want to hear what Walker has to say about how the Jays helped shape his game.
Take a look at the clip embedded above courtesy of the NBA on ESPN Youtube channel.
