The Boston Celtics introduced their two new high-octane bench players Malcolm Brogdon and Danilo Gallinari on Tuesday morning at their practice facility at Auerbach Center, with Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens serving in the role of master of ceremonies.
The trio was enthusiastic about their addition to the team that represented the NBA’s Eastern Conference in the 2022 NBA Finals, both players with a legitimate claim to starter status on most teams in the league. Both Brogdon and Gallinari also revealed that fandom for the Boston franchise has deep roots in both of their respective backgrounds.
“I grew up with my dad being a Celtics fan, being a Larry Bird fan,” explained Gallinari.
