The Boston Celtics are working on their roster for the 2023-24 NBA season with a recent camp signing. Per CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning, the Celtics have inked forward Taylor Funk — who models his game after Larry Bird of all people — to an Exhibit 10 contract in preparation for their training camp.
Funk, a 26-year-old forward, displayed solid numbers last season, averaging 13.4 points and 5.5 rebounds per game while shooting a respectable 45.1% from the field. His 3-point shooting is solid, having hit 37% from beyond the arc during his time at Utah State. In the NBA’s 2023 Las Vegas Summer League, he played for the Miami Heat, averaging 3.5 points per game. Now, what could he bring to the Celtics if he makes the team?
