Hugo Gonzalez was clearly frustrated with his play against the Heat as he struggled for stretches of the game.
In an offseason of change for the Celtics, who dismantled a significant portion their championship-winning roster to avoid the wrath of the NBA’s second apron, no position group has been hit harder than center.
The Boston Celtics used their first round pick in the 2025 NBA draft, No. 28 overall, on Hugo Gonzalez, a 6'6 wing from Spain who they hope can come in and impact the franchise right away while they wait for superstar Jayson Tatum to recover from his torn Achilles.
After just one summer league game, it's easy to see why the Celtics drafted Hugo González, and he is poised to become a favorite of Joe Mazzulla.
