For Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard, arriving early and putting in work at the Auerbach Center before training camp offers a humble reminder of 'what it takes to be part of a championship team and how to make it in this league for a long time.'
On the court, his story last season was one of triumph and perseverance. After multiple seasons on the outside of the Celtics' rotation, he took on a crucial role he'd waited years for and helped the franchise put together a historic 80-win season.
"Here's Pritchard he loves these... puts it up from halfcourt at the buzzer... BANG... HE'S DONE IT AGAIN!"Fast forward to the start of training camp on Wednesday and the 26-year-old was sharpening his craft at the Auerbach Center. Like many, he had already been putting in work there before Boston's first practice.
The four-year veteran added, “Obviously, just trying to expand my game, being a better playmaker all the time, and taking another step like I did.”
