I think this is part of the rationale why Ainge hasn't gone hard after bigs this free agency period.

Zizic gives us help where we need it -- physicality on the boards and in the paint. And as added bonuses, he can hit his free throws and run in transition. He knows his role, and won't cry about getting offensive touches.

He'll be with the team next year, and he'll fit in with Smart, Jaylen, Rozier and whoever we draft this year as our next generation's key players.

The Boston Celtics is not a just team of basketball players, but is a world wide family of individuals who bleed green and follow the team through thick and thin. No such thing as fair weather Celtics fans.
