In the 2020 postseason, the Boston Celtics once again failed to make it to the NBA Finals. They have exited the playoffs in the Eastern Conference Finals three times in the last four seasons.

As a result, to shake things up a little, the Celtics hired former NBA player Evan Turner as an assistant coach. Turner’s biggest job is to focus on player development for this young roster.

However, it seems like veteran wants to enjoy his vacation for a little longer. Turner is yet to show up at the Celtics camp to start with his duties. Instead, he has been spending most of his time filling his Instagram page.

This led to Jayson Tatum trolling the former NBA player, Tatum left a comment on one of Turner’s recent Instagram post that said, “Lol yo when u coming to practice?”

Turner was quick to reply to this comment by Tatum and replied, “don’t do that, I’m working remotely.”

Following this hilarious exchange, hopefully, Turner will show up to the camp soon. The NBA season is set to begin on December 22, and every team is already preparing at full pace. Furthermore, this season is quite important for the Celtics as they have been stuck in a stagnant position for the last few years.

Considering the Celts are a historic franchise with only the LA Lakers in the same stratosphere as them, fans have huge expectations from the players. Moreover, it has been more than a decade since the franchise last brought some hardware for the city of Boston.

Looking at their current roster, they have the talent to make it to the NBA Finals. With Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown getting plenty of playoff experience under their belt, it should only be a matter of time before they bring back glory days for the team.

The team also has a solid supporting cast around their stars to push their team to the next level. But can this roster carry the Celtics to an NBA Championship one day?
