The Boston Celtics have signed Udoka Azubuike to their summer league team. Azubuike is a former first-round pick and a 6-foot-10 big man drafted by the Utah Jazz out of Kansas in 2020. Azubuike is known for his athleticism and ability to catch lobs and has shown potential as a rim runner and shot-blocker.
There are concerns about his lack of NBA and G League experience with just 68 games played over three seasons in the former league, and a mere two in the latter, but with Boston likely looking at the former Jayhawks as a potential two way prospect, there might be a match depending on how the Nigerian center plays with the Sin City Celtics at the 2023 Las Vegas Summer League.
To get more familiar with his game and to hear key details of what we can expect from Azubuike, check out the clip embedded below from the folks at the “How ‘Bout Them Celtics?” podcast.
