Caution: Evan Turner's stats so far look just like somebody else's from last preseason...
Evan Turner played very well in the Celtics first preseason game. On the CSNNE post-game show Kyle Draper even called him Boston's "best offensive player." Turner followed that up with a solid performance in the C's second exhibition last night. Through two preseason contests his stats are as follows:
53 MIN, 9-19 FG, 5-6 FT, 14 REB, 10 AST, 1 STL, 24 PTS
Last preseason there was another Celtic who impressed us in the opener, and his two-game totals were very similar to what Turner's are now:
42 MIN, 9-18 FG, 5-6 FT, 5 REB, 6 AST, 1 STL, 26 PTS
That player's name? Gerald Wallace.
