What can the Boston Celtics expect from signing big man Nathan Knight to a two way deal? Knight, a 26-year-old forward, was previously with the New York Knicks during the preseason, and the Atlanta Hawks and Minnesota Timberwolves before that. Although he’s not a towering center at 6-foot-10, he’s described as a big body who doesn’t need the ball much, making him a valuable addition for the Celtics.
He had a standout college career at William and Mary, where he excelled as a forward and showcased his shot-blocking abilities. The signing of Knight hints at the possibility of him getting playing time with the main Celtics roster, although he averaged only 7.7 minutes in 38 games with the Timberwolves last season.
To hear more about what Knight might bring to Boston, take a look at the clip from the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast embedded below.
