Romeo Langford! Is he ever going to be healthy? Ever since he was drafted there has been talk about the upside in what he offers on the floor, and in flashes he shows why the Celtics drafted him so high. Defensively he can stay with anyone. He has length and quickness. He's a very smart player. Offensively he can knock down threes and as fans saw he brought the hammer down on that dunk in summer league.
Yet he's never healthy. It seems there's usually something physical going on and when your not on the floor, your value starts to decrease. Not to mention when your team brings in guys who are similar in your skill set like a Josh Richardson. What does that say? Plus you drafted a guy like Nesmith who honestly has higher upside than you do. Let's also look at a guy like Sam Hauser who can shoot the lights out, and imagine him being left open when the Jays are doubled. If Romeo isn't healthy than where does that leave him?
Celtics fans see the promise but also see the injuries and at some point it may be time for Romeo to be shipped away as part of a package for an upgrade. Romeo where art thou oh Romeo?! Hopefully it's healthy and on the parquet this season!
