After not adding anyone at the trade deadline, they thought this was the best way to improve the roster.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_csbpzdrji\">Boston had to trade Jaden Springer in order to open up a roster spot so they could bring in Craig. Craig is someone who can play a few minutes off the bench every night if needed.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_zg233uw39\">He&#8217;s also someone who is content not getting minutes. He&#8217;s the perfect guy to have on the fringes of the rotation.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_62i2au4ox\">Craig knows what his value is as a player, and he&#8217;s hoping to bring that to the defending champs. He signed with the Celtics because he thinks they have a great shot at winning the title for the second straight year.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_zlphji61h\">Read more: Which Team in Eastern Conference is Celtics Biggest Threat?<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_znbaafi97\">While Craig hasn&#8217;t been with the team very long, he has done the best he can to get himself integrated with the rest of the roster. He also has done his best to get himself in a good spot with the fans.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_87ach40e6\">His recent comments will certainly make the fans happy when he was talking about his time in Boston so far.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Asked Torrey Craig about his early impressions of Boston: <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know one thing, I have to watch how I&#39;m walking on this ice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then, more seriously: <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI love Boston.

As a glue guy, he knows how to make fans love when he&#8217;s out on the court.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_cjvg1a3ka\">More Celtics news: Celtics&#8217; Jayson Tatum Offers Surprising Pick for Greatest Boston Legend<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_2tgsp3c3o\">For the Celtics, they need someone like Craig who is more concerned with playing defense than putting the ball in the basket. He also knows that he just has to make the open threes he&#8217;s given.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_mgvfimd3n\">Craig was brought into Boston to be a 3-and-D wing. While he&#8217;s not the most efficient version of that, he&#8217;s good enough at the end of the bench to make a difference.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_q6vo2mne6\">So far this season, Craig is averaging 6.2 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 0.6 assists per game with both the Celtics and the Bulls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While he&#8217;s only been with the team for a short time, Celtics fans will love his recent comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":36256,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36255","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
