The three-point shot seems to be one of Joe Mazzulla’s most prized resources when it comes to composing the Boston Celtics’ offensive scheme. And if Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk has a virtue, that’s it. It seems relatively logical that those from Massachusetts have been interested in the Ukrainian forward, with whom, according to the media DNAThey are negotiating to incorporate him into the squad.
Svi, who is a free agent after finishing the season with the Hornets, has not exactly had plenty of offers in the NBA this summer, and in fact, according to this rumor, he is also in talks with Panathinaikos about a possible move to Europe. However, after the dismissal of Justin Champagnie, Boston has a hole in its roster in which they consider that Mykhailiuk fits, giving him the opportunity to continue in the league in a team that promises to fight for another year for the title of champion.
The forward has had a career in which his appearances on the track have never been frequent or long, but in which the outside shot has earned him so that different franchises have chosen to have him since he arrived in the NBA in 2018. In this period he has gone through six teams, and in this last year, in which he played 13 games in New York and 19 in Charlotte, he has just signed 6.9 points with a 42.4% accuracy rate in three-pointers. Despite his low presence, he has been the third player with the most triples made in less than 500 minutes played (42), so if what the Celtics are looking for is a man from the bottom of the closet but prepared to plug in at specific moments, seems the right one.
