When did the Mo Wagner workout happen? Was there any news about how it went?
I like Mo as well, but I can't find anything about a workout with the Celtics...

Ooh, they worked out Tryggvi?? He’s one of my top targets for a draft and stash with a late 2nd, should we buy one.
I really don’t think Mo can handle the NBA. His defense is flat-out unplayable at the NBA level right now. He doesn’t have enough lateral mobility to handle perimeter switches well, and his post technique is quite poor also. He can’t help but commit reach in fouls.
If we traded out of the first, say with Philly for multiple of their seconds, I’d be okay with it, as his offensive talent is worth a gamble at some point. Just not in the 1st round. That pick needs to at least be able to fit into the end of the rotation as a rookie.
YASSSSSS!
Tryggvi, a tantalizing Icelandic prospect that I've been following ever since he got drafted to Valenica.
TP, saltlover, I hope we pick him up. Plus it would be fun to see Scal, Gorman or Tommy pronounce his name
This guy has some raw, but high skill set. Very mobile, agile, and great hands.
He is certainly worth buying a 2nd rounder, as he can be immediately drafted/stashed elsewhere, and can develop quickly. He isn't like Iverson, or Perkins where he is just a lumbering big. He has very high IQ, and soft touch.
He led the tournament in blocks and efficiency, while coming in third in rebounds and seventh in scoring. Tryggvi became only the third 7-footer in the 21st century to average at least 14 points, 3 blocks, and 2 assists per 40 minutes at the European U-20s, after former NBA player Andris Biedriņš and 2017 NBA draft pick Anžejs Pasečņiks.
