NBA training camps will begin Tuesday
Tristan Thompson is on his way to Boston.
For the first time in his career, the veteran big man will be playing for a team other than the Cleveland Cavaliers, inking a two-year deal last week to join the Celtics.
And with training camps around the NBA set to open Tuesday, Thompson posted a picture on Instagram of himself heading to Massachusetts on a private jet.
Thompson figures to be a big part of the Celtics’ plans in the upcoming campaign.
Even with the emergence of Daniel Theis last season, Thompson plays a different brand of basketball and is sure to get some heavy minutes in Brad Stevens’ system.
