From Court Magician to Coaching Wizard!…
Hocus-Pocus, the Maine Celtics are pulling a trick out of their hoops hat with none other than Phil Pressey snagging the coach’s crown! This former Missouri wizard, who strutted his stuff like a peacock with a basketball back in the day, is the 11th ringmaster to lead the circus. Tyler Lashbrook may have passed the torch in 2024, but Pressey’s ready to light up the court like a hooped-up firework!
Phil Pressey’s journey to the helm is the stuff of basketball legends riding a unicycle through a llama parade. Once a Bostonian super-duck during the NBA Summer League, he slam-dunked his way past the Philadelphia 76ers, danced briefly with the Phoenix Suns, and even took a swig of championship juice with the Golden State Warriors. Sporting a passport full of love from Spain and Turkey, he’s back to the vibrant courts of Maine, ready to cook up a hoopla recipe!
Now part of the Boston Celtics’ dream team laboratory, Pressey’s all set to mold raw talent into full-blown hoop dynamos! With guests like JD Davison and Neemias Queta frequenting the vibrant Maine clinic, Pressey’s magic touch promises triple-double upside-down spins and tomorrow’s stars shooting for the sequel of NBA stardom. Fasten your laces, folks, the Pressey show is about to begin!
