Trio of Celts make Premiership TOTW

Yahoo03-03-2025
Celtic, eventually, came out on top in Saturday's seven-goal thriller against St Mirren to roar 16 points clear at the summit of the Scottish Premiership.
Brendan Rodgers' squad showed their class and I have three of his stars in my team of the week.
It was a supreme display from Celtic midfielder Reo Hatate. He showed his class and provided a simply stunning assist for Yang Hyun-Jun's opener.
Speaking of Yang, the super sub makes my team too. Talk about impact. Two goals and an assist off the bench for Yang Hyun-Jun, has him in my team.
Daizen Maeda has to be player of the season. There was yet another goal for the outstanding Japan international who continually delivers the goods for his side, wherever he is deployed.

Today in Boston Celtics history: Will Bynum signs; Roy Rogers born; Munroe passes

Today in Boston Celtics history, guard Will Bynum signed a training camp deal with the team after going unselected in the 2005 NBA Draft. Bynum, a native of Chicago, Illinois, played his NCAA basketball at Arizona and then later transferred to Georgia Tech. Bynum led Georgia Tech to an NCAA title with a late basket vs. the Oklahoma State Cowboys before electing to try his luck in the draft that year. He would then sign with Boston later that summer when no teams took a chance on him. He would not end up making the team, however — Bynum would find himself cut by Boston a little more than two months later, on October 25. The Chicagoan would become a Celtic again briefly many years later, after stints with the Golden State Warriors and Detroit Pistons, but somehow Bynum would never play a game with the team. Birthdays It is the birthday of former Boston forward Roy Rogers, born this day in 1973 in Linden, Alabama. Rogers went to Alabama to play NCAA basketball and was drafted with the 22nd overall pick of the 1996 NBA draft by the (then) Vancouver (now, Memphis) Grizzlies before being dealt to the Celtics at the end of his rookie season. He played just nine games for Boston before being dealt yet again. Rogers averaged 0.8 points and 0.6 boards per game in his brief tenure with the team, and would later return to the club as an assistant coach. Bubble history It is also the date of the Celtics defeating the Philadelphia 76ers 128 – 101 to take a 2 – 0 series lead in the first round of the 2020 NBA Playoffs, held in the Disney bubble due to the pandemic. 'I'm playing confident,' Tatum said after the game (via the AP) in which he scored 33 points to lead all Celtics. 'Just trying to be aggressive and trying to make the right play. I say that a lot, but that's as easy as I can break it down.' Rest In Peace Finally, it is also the date of the passing of former Boston guard George Munroe, who played just 21 games for the Celtics in 1947-48. The Dartmouth alum logged 3.4 points per game over that stretch.
