What does Oshae Brissett bring to the Boston Celtics?
The Boston Celtics have signed former Indiana Pacers forward Oshae Brissett to a two-year, veteran’s minimum contract with a player option on the second year, adding some much-needed wing depth to their roster for the team’s 2023-24 campaign. Brissett, a 6-foot-7 forward able to play at both the 3 and 4 positions, has played for the Pacers and the Toronto Raptors previously at the NBA level and before that for the Syracuse Orangemen at the NCAA level.
Ironically, Brissett had a career-high 27 points fueled by six 3-pointers in a game against the Celtics. Brissett’s shooting and, in particular, defensive abilities will be valuable for the team as an option to spell star Boston wings Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown during the regular season while also providing some insurance for the ball club in case they lose reserve forward Grant Williams in free agency.
