Kendrick Perkins isn’t worried about the Boston Celtics this season
Despite all the things that have gone in recent weeks for the Boston Celtics, champion alumnus Kendrick Perkins is still pretty positive about the team’s ability to make some noise in the 2022-23 NBA season and beyond.
First, the team lost their new forward, veteran swingman Danilo Gallinari, to an ACL injury that will keep him out for all of the regular season. Then, they got word that starting center Robert Williams III would need a cleanup operation on the knee that a meniscal tear cost him much of the 2022 postseason. After that, the Ime Udoka scandal broke, and then the expected absence of Timelord effectively doubled.
Even with all this on their plate before the preseason has even started, the Celtics seem to be set up well enough that Perk is not too worried about their coming campaign under interim head coach Joe Mazzulla.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear why.
