Boston Celtics (0-0) vs Utah Jazz (0-0)
Jazz Summer League Game 1
Monday, July 6, 2015
9:00 PM ET
NBA-TV, Summer League Pass, CSNNE
Energy Solutions Arena



Celtics Roster
#60 Eric Buckner
# 49 CJ Fair
#68 Jonathan Holmes
#28 RJ Hunter

Coaches

Jamie Young; Jay Larranaga; Walter McCarty; Micah Shrewsberry

Players to Watch

Terry Rozier, Jordan Mickey, RJ Hunter, Marcus Thornton
The Celtics 4 draft picks are all playing to make an impression and to win a spot on the team.  This will be our first look at them.

James Young
Young has reportedly put on muscle and has impressed in practice.  He is looking to make his mark in his second season. 

Colton Iverson
Iverson is playing in his 3rd Summer League for the Celtics and has said that he has lost some weight and added quickness and is hoping to impress enough to stick around this season. 




Jazz Roster
Jack Cooley
Bryce Cotton
Jared Cunningham
Jerry Evans
Dante Exum 
Olivier Hanlan
Rodney Hood
Grant Jerrett
Chris Johnson
JaJuan Johnson
Trey Lyles
Jesse Morgan
Brock Motum
JJ O'Brien
Nick Russell
Wesley Saunders
Nick Wiggins

Coaches
Quin Snyder, Brad Jones, Antonio Lang, Alex Jensen, Mike Wells, Johnnie Bryant

Players to Watch

Dante Exum
Last year's highly rated draft pick never really took off last season, averaging only 4.8 points and 2.4 assists.  He will be looking to make his mark in this Summer League.

Trey Lyles
This year's 12th pick will be one to keep an eye on as he looks to make an impression in his first game with the Jazz.

JaJuan Johnson, Chris Johnson
Two former Celtics will be looking to prove that the Celtics made a mistake when they let them go.

Rozier + Smart versus Burke + Exum

Should be fun.

I'm really hoping Rozier just tears it up at Summer League.  If he was so good in workouts against other young guys, that seems like a possibility.

TP, FLCelts! It is a joy to have a game thread after all the waiting and plotting of the draft and FA!

Heavy guard battle with Exum, Hanlan and Cotten on the other side.

Interesting to watch how Young matches up with Chris Johnson (a good long defender) and Hood.
"We do so many defensive drills in practice, I come home and I'm putting the press on my woman, denying her the ball.
Y'all are laughing, but it's sad. I go home and deny the wing."

Thanks for the sig compliment. I tried to get Johnny Most in there, but it didn't quite work out.

I can't take credit for the work though. A new poster, Dennis998, in this thread,

http://forums.celticsblog.com/index.php?action=pm#msg211909

solicited requests from anyone who wanted sigs. He does great work and is very talented.

Thanks to C'sblog members like you and him, this is community that has, for the most part, members who are pretty helpful to each other.

Thanks again.

Regarding the game, I'm really looking forward to seeing Rozier, Hunter, Mickey, Thornton and Holmes.

Been over 2 months since your last game thread. Glad you and the threads are back.

Hope springs eternal with summer league.

Hoopshype.com says that Lyles has not signed his rookie contract yet and likely won't play Monday.   

9 hours ago - via Deseret News
The Jazz still have not signed Lyles, the 12th pick of the June 25 draft, as the team continues to explore transaction options with his lower cap hold and to work on minor contract details with his agent. The Jazz are not commenting on when things might be resolved with Lyles, so it remains uncertain whether he’ll be available for the Utah-hosted summer league, which begins Monday night. Lyles’ cap hold is at 100 percent of the rookie salary scale, which is $1,866,500. He’ll eventually be paid at 120 percent of the rookie scale ($2,239,800), but Utah can use the difference for a trade or a free agent signing before he inks the deal.

Also, I just noticed CJ Fair was on our roster....I watched him torch the Red Claws for 32 last season in the D-League...he's a very active offensive player.

Hoping Smart, Hunter, and Young all look great. 

TP for the thread..great work

TP FLCeltsFan, great job as always ;D!

Dang I hate that we are playing so late (which wouldn't have been the case if we played in the Orlando summer league :-\). It certainly is tough to see the C's play live from Europe :'(

I think the Celtics were going to use it on Holmes but he never was drafted so the Celtics never had to buy the pick. I'm excited about him, as well.

Great to have you back with game threads FLCelts!

Slight correction FLCelts:  Rozier and Hunter are not fighting for roster spots, as 1st round picks they have guaranteed contracts. But yes, I see your point that they are anxious to make an impression.
