Las Vegas Summer League is firmly behind the Sin City Celtics, their identity now starting to morph toward being the Boston Celtics ball club we will see on the court for the NBA's 2026-27 regular season. Training camp and preseason are still there for the deeper rotation players to earn themselves a role, and the Celtics incoming class of rookies and undrafted players will also be fighting to assure their place with the team as well.
Rookies Chris Cenac Jr. and Dillon Mitchell stand out in particular as potential deep rotation options who could conceivably see the floor with Boston this coming campaign. But they have some serious competition ahead of them and some limitations to their play to go with some surprising developments that were on display
in summer league. What can we expect from the Celtics incoming rookies next season, and beyond?
To that end, the hosts of "Havlicek Stole the Pod" caught up with Bryce Simon of Motor City Hoops and the "Game Theory" podcast to project what we expect from Mitchell and Cenac in the season to come as well as their ceilings and floors. They also touch on some of the other hidden gems of the Sin City Celtics, and get caught up on what little news there is to dig into. Check it out!
