The Boston Celtics are bringing in forward Alize Johnson for a workout this week, HoopsHype has learned. The five-year NBA veteran is considered a high-motor player and rebounder.

Championship!

Rumor is that Brad found this guy hanging out the passenger side of his best friend's ride, trying to holler at him.  (Sorry...  lame, even for those who love the 90s.)

I'd have faith in that, if the warm bodies didn't keep ending up on our roster.

Can we offer him the supermax if we do not resign Jaylen?  Maybe that is what is holding that up.

Kidding of course and love the 90s reference!

Brad just loves these kinds of guys. What a waste of time.

There’s some post from either last summer or the 2022 deadline where I advocated for Alize Johnson since then — he looked promising for Brooklyn in a brief run a couple of seasons back, but nothing since.

Oh good. BKN got rid of him. He was a waste of a roster spot. Good for them.

For what it’s worth, he’s apparently been killing it in the G League.

Camp body to put at Maine most likely.

Yeah. I’m still hoping we could get Dario Saric. I was surprised to know that he’s just 29 years old.

Teams are trying to adopt the Heat philosophy of finding these diamonds in the rough for cheap, but it's like have they won an actual championship doing it?

Is Brad trying to prove how smart is he is or something?
