Newest Boston Celtics signee Justin Champagnie spoke to the media for the first time since joining the ball club this week, sharing some thoughts about joining the team after a stint in the NBA’s G League with the Sioux Falls Sky Force. “I was on the plane going back to South Dakota, and my agent called me and told me there was a possibility (the Celtics) would sign me,” said Champagnie via CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning.
“I was just really excited, getting an opportunity to get back on the NBA floor and help any way I can,” he added. “Finding my niche, whether it be learning how to get around bigger guys for rebounds or learning how to get my shot off faster … my playmaking, stuff like that. I’m trying to become more of an all-around player rather than limit myself to 1 thing.”
