Celtics Eye Iranian Guard Amini | Boston Celtics News
Description
The Boston Celtics surprised fans by dropping Mohammad Amini — a 21-year-old Iranian guard with freakish length and international firepower — from their Summer League roster. While most names were predictable, Amini’s unexpected inclusion hints at his potential: a six-foot-seven guard with a six-foot-ten wingspan, who led Iran in scoring at the World Championship and dropped 33 points against India. His NBA draft eligibility remains unfulfilled, but his shooting — hovering around 25% from three — is the big question. Scouts suggest Europe or college could help him refine his game, but for the Celtics, this is a low-risk, high-reward scouting opportunity to see what he’s got — and where he needs to grow.
