Boston Celtics second-year small forward Aaron Nesmith may not see the floor as much as he might like, but his high-energy play when he does get some run can create electric (if sometimes frightening) moments.
Such was the case in the Celtics home tilt with the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday evening, which saw the South Carolina native break down Kings forward Louis King while throwing up a floater that netted Nesmith an and-1 as he seemingly pulled the Oregon product with him towards the basket. Adding fuel to the fire of Boston’s blowout of their northern Californian counterparts, Nesmith looks like a nascent talent in need of some run to produce such moments more consistently.
