Yup, his defensive potential has popped off the tape even from last year. He needs reps, but his upside there is insanely high.View: https://twitter.com/taylorcsnow/status/1385371975170801667
His transition defense and his second jump are so good.
Re ball-handling: the Celtics base offense with Tatum/Brown likes to use other guys as ball-handlers, so there are plenty of reps there if Romeo can take a summer and get competent at that. The Celtics should sort of hope it takes him some time to get there, because if he starts showing that ability consistently before the end of year 3, people here are going to choke at how high the RFA/extension number gets.
