The Green Machine Recruits a Shark!…
Holy high hoops and slam dunks, Batman! The Celtics have nabbed themselves a larger-than-life character straight out of a basketball comic book! Former Louisiana Tech dynamo Kenny Lofton Jr, fresh off his intergalactic MVP victory with the Shanghai Sharks, is steaming into Las Vegas faster than a speeding alley-oop! This guy has been collecting jerseys like they’re going out of style—having shot hoops with the Grizzlies, 76ers, and Jazz before making CBA’s defenders look like traffic cones! With an average of 25.2 points, 12.6 boards, and 6.5 dimes per game with the Sharks, he was a slam-dunk superstar, dazzling like a disco ball at an all-nighter!
At just 22 years young, ol’ Kenny Lofton Jr is bouncing back Stateside to prove his mettle with the legendary Celtics. This kid’s got skills hotter than a spicy slamwich, dropping 42-point crackers in his rookie NBA escapades. And his G League performances? Sizzlin’ with a cool splash of 22.8 points on 56% shooting—this dude’s scoring artillery is sharper than a porcupine’s poker night!
Joining this hoop dream parade are a band of merry pranksters ready to rock the Summer League! Stars like Baylor Scheierman, Jordan Walsh, and a whole clan of ballers will tag along for the ride. Lofton Jr and the Celtics’ merry band of basketball bouncers will tip-off against the Grizzlies on July 11th. Over the following week, the Celtics will tango with the Knicks, Heat, and even those show-stopping Lakers! Summer League is rolling in hotter than a sunbathing flamingo on a Miami rooftop!
