The Boston Celtics‘ first big move of the NBA’s 2023 free agency period was to sign unrestricted free agent Oshea Brissett to a two-year, veteran minimum deal with a player option on the contract’s second season. Who is Brissett as a player and as a person? What does he bring to the team on both ends of the court? And how will he be used by the Celtics in their 2023-24 campaign?
CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning reacted to the breaking news regarding Oshae Brissett signing a two-year deal with the Celtics as it happened. Brissett is a 25-year-old Canadian wing, who played on the Indiana Pacers last season averaging 6.1 points and 3.4 rebounds in just 16.7 minutes per game, hinting that he might be able to take on a bigger role.
Manning discussed Brissett’s potential role with the Celtics, highlighted his athletic and versatile style of play, and examined the strategic implications of the player option in the second year of the contract.
