Everything is Lining up Perfectly for the Celtics...

Everything is lining up perfectly for the Celtics as yesterday it was confirmed that they went out and signed two-way player Devin Carter from Sacramento and now he will be heading to Boston where this lineup gets deeper and deeper as the days go on and the mastermind behind it all Joe Mizzoula tries to build his championship team heading into next season. What's going on everyone my name is Will Nicholson. I'm here with Celtics Digest. Today we're going to be talking about Devin Carter. Now a good friend Kellen made a video yesterday talking about the rumor of it but now it's confirmed we want to keep all you updated about Devin Carter. Before we get there Celtics Digest is doing everything Celtics here and we're trying to build that subscriber count as we go. So if you'd like to subscribe that would help us out a ton. You can keep up to date on everything that is Celtics. Now Celtics again just keep adding to this depth you know you bring in Mitchell Robinson uh you bring in guys like Paul George with the the Jalen Brown trade and now another guy you have coming in in the form of Devin Carter. Most likely gonna end up in Maine but who knows you know people have spot starts all the time in Boston you don't know what happens with injuries. Now you have a two-way hustle player who plays both sides of the four and is also going to be on a two-way contract. Celtics are looking pretty dangerous this year and that is why on CalShi I have placed a bet for them to win over 50 games. You can see I put $25 on it and it's about a $41 payout.

Again use if you're 18 or older if you want to put your money where your mouth is on the Celtics that would be the best way to do it. Now let's go on to Devin Carter. Again a guy very unknown. I guess you could say if you're not totally into the NBA you might not know who he is but a guy very young guy coming into the league got a little bit of tick for Sacramento but again not a whole ton going on. But you know the Celtics are just building that depth now as we get closer and closer to the start of the season you want more depth. He kind of plays that Hugo Gonzalez excuse me Hugo Gonzalez role where it's just straight hustle and you can see it in his shooting splits as we go down further and further. Again a guy who uh oh hold on bring up the graphic here we go there we go Devin Carter again great defender uh plays both sides of the floor and the big question for him will be where does he fit in the Celtics lineup? The more you look at his numbers the more that you will be intrigued. I mean for me I'm looking at the shooting numbers here that zone efficiency likes to hit downhill go to the paint uh mid-range kind of a dead shot in the NBA now so nothing that I would worry about. Also that corner three is very interesting if you ask me. A guy who you know Joe can definitely drop some plays for him and put him on the floor if he is needed come in knock down a corner three play defense it's exactly what Hugo has done the past couple of years but just another guy who again you can just throw into the lineup when you need. Hustle player exactly the type of guy that Joe Mazzullo wants. Uh we're going to take a look at NBC Celt, NBCS Celtics excuse me right now with their tweet on it saying former Kings point guard Devin Carter has reportedly agreed to a deal with the Celtics. That is who broke the news to me that is how I found out go to NBCS Boston. Uh again the Celtics just stockpiling players it feels like with all kind of the same profile you know Hugo Gonzalez, Jordan Walsh kind of that three and D hustle even though Hugo needs to shoot that three ball a little bit better but it's it's lining up for the Celtics you're starting to see the type of guys on what this rotation will look like which is crazy because we are in September now and it feels like we're still you know kind of up in the air what is the rotation going to look like you know you know guys who are going to start obviously Tatum, Paul George, Robinson and who knows from there really who else is going to be touching the floor Pritchard's probably going to be your starting point guard and then is it Shireman, is it Gonzalez who else is going to be slid in to that gap or is are we going to get more enemies Cato are we going to get majority shooting ability who knows that's why these trades are so fun to speculate about uh with Devin Carter mainly he's probably going to start off with the main team right let's see what I did there uh you can take a look at the full main roster here some names that you might recognize Amari Williams couple other young guys getting started so that is where he is going to do majority of his damage most likely developing in Maine again a guy who uh young so has a lot of time to develop I think Maine will be perfect for him working with that coaching staff and just getting used to the system you see guys like Jordan Walsh, Hugo Gonzalez spent some time in Maine I mean Walsh pretty much spent the whole year in Maine and look at him now he's a decent player could end up starting for the Celtics in some spots you know maybe instead of Shireman or Gonzalez you want to go Pritchard at one Paul George at the two Walsh at the three Tatum at the four and then Mitchell Robinson like it's possible for these things to happen and we've seen Joe do it before I mean Baylor Shireman started a couple of games last year so nothing is out of the ordinary we'll pull this up for you one more time take a look at what your Maine Celtics are going to look like I think that Devin Carter will slide in perfectly with the rest of these guys again names that you probably recognize if you were up to date on the Celtics last year and paid intense attention as you know I did and everyone else here on uh Digest Celtics who creates videos for us did Ron Harper Jr. a guy who you know probably gonna get some more time on the big team in Boston uh but you know we'll see there's still be a two-way player Max Shulga a guy who will spend a lot of time down there but again got some starts uh towards the end of the season last year just the end of the games Mari Williams still gonna be listed in there and that is where Devin Carter will slip in a guy who's gonna come in take some of those guards minutes he has a lot of experience in you know the NBA already in just his first year or two in the league so it's gonna be interesting to see what this will look like going forward and again the Celtics a whole lot of pieces on this team it feels like now it's gonna be exciting to see let's take a look at the numbers that Devin Carter put up last year now again not a whole lot of minutes a game only got 38 games in there and in those games not a whole ton of minutes he had going for him but still a very productive player a guy who when he's on the floor he's gonna make an impact not just on the offense side of the ball but defensively as well I mean the steals are great he had a turnover problem a little bit of turnover problem which you'll see from point guards every now and then especially the young ones they are bound to make mistakes but again you just peek at some of these numbers here and it impresses you he is an assist man he can get the ball to where it needs to go and just a guy that he feels like a Jomezula player and I don't feel like a bad line for saying that a guy who you know is gonna come in and give you exactly what you need when you need it if you need a stop excuse me you need to stop and you need someone to dish out assists he is going to be the man for it again if you'll look at the three point percentage here it's gone down from 29.5 in his rookie year to 26.3 but again when we looked at his shooting numbers earlier that is to be expected and you know we'll take a look at it again here because his corner three is something that I think is really interesting if once again zone efficiency that corner three that goes down at 39 that is a great shot for him the corner three and I think the Celtics who like to swing the rock a lot and you know constant ball movement I think that is where he'll slip in perfectly if he's able to come in and make an impact in that way Devin Carter welcome to Boston I know we are thrilled to have you my man very excited to get another guard into Boston even if he's going to spend some time in Maine we'll see what you know the future holds but I want to hear from you guys what do you think that Devin Carter will look like going forward is he going to get more time in the NBA or will he spend time in the G League with the Maine
