A look at Celtics two-way players, Walt Lemon and P. J. Dozier in Maine


The Maine Red Claws with two games under their belt have a 1-1 record, and the Celtics two 2-way players, P. J. Dozier and Walt Lemon both had solid games last night in the win over the Delaware Blue Coats. Dozier's line was 26 points, seven rebounds, nine assists, two steals and one block. Lemon notched 29 points, three boards, three assists and five steals. Former Celtic Demetrius Jackson had 26 points, three rebounds and four assists for Delaware.




Dozier's size, age and heritage make him worth following as a potential Celtics full-time player down the road. He is a 6'6", 22-year-old second cousin of the late, great Reggie Lewis. Despite the fact it is against G-League competition, his 26/7/9 line shows versatility and promise.



Walt Lemon is a 6'3", 26-year-old guard, and his five steals from last night's game are noteworthy, as are his 29 points.
