Easily my favorite Celtic.
Hopefully he can stay healthy to both contribute this year and to enhance his value on the trade market, because contractually and being guard heavy could mean that he is gone in the summer or by next trade deadline. This is hard for me to accept., but I get it.
He is the consummate Celtic. His hard work and it's resultant improvement and his dogged determination are admirable.
His humility even more-so, especially in this day of prima donna, entitled athletes.
This from Himmelsbach's twitter:

Bradley on Isaiah finding him for 3:
"Right after the play I told him 'Thank you for just believing in me.' He looked at me like, 'What?'"
And he is held in such high regard by his competitors and teammates alike:

Isaiah on Avery: "What is he, first-team all-defense?"
*crowd nods*
"For a reason. He’s the best on-ball defender in the NBA."
How can you not love this guy?
Please stay healthy, AB, both selfishly for us (the Cs) and for yourself so you can get that big payday that you deserve, wherever that might be. You've earned it.
