How Boston Celtics vet Blake Griffin has embraced his role with the team

Veteran Boston Celtics big man Blake Griffin has himself quite a role to fill on his current club, but whether the Celtics need him to start on occasion or ride the pine for an extended stretch, the Oklahoma City native has stayed ready throughout the course of Boston’s 2022-23 campaign so far.

And Griffin’s sharp sense of humor and extensive experience in the league as a star player who reinvented his game to stay in the game have made him a key part of the organization behind the scenes as well. Potential Sixth Man of the Year candidate Malcolm Brogdon and others recently sang Griffin’s praises in a recent video put together by the team.

Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear how the former University of Oklahoma standout has fit into the Celtics organization like a hand into a glove.
