We suspected it, it is now almost official: Juhann Bégarin will not play with the Celtics in the upcoming NBA season. Drafted in 45th position by the C’s last year, he will have to wait according to the Boston Globe. Indeed, despite his good season and his very interesting performances in the Summer League, the Celtics do not yet count on him.
He will continue to develop in France at Paris Basketball. Last season he shot 11.1 points at 43.2% including 30.9% from afar, 4.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals in 28 minutes. In the Summer League he compiled 18.2 points at 42.7% including 33.3% from distance, 5.6 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.8 steals, including a last game at 25 points.
According to a league source, Celtics 2021 second-round draft pick Juhann Begarin will return to Paris this season to continue his development in France’s top league, LNB Pro A.
