The Boston Celtics held their introductory press conference for star big man Kristaps Porzingis on Thursday afternoon. Porzingis is expected to bring his strong work ethic and positive demeanor to Boston, and his presence is expected to improve both the team’s performance on the court and the atmosphere in the locker room.
The experience of starting his career in New York with the Knicks prepared him for the pressure of a market like Boston’s and helped him grow as a player. The Latvian center is excited about joining a team with talented scorers like Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, as it will create opportunities for him offensively.
The team aims to build a cohesive and talented roster to pursue their goal of winning, as was recounted by Celtics president Brad Stevens and head coach Joe Mazzulla.
