"Anything that doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and I think those moments kind of made me stronger. During my first year [Xavier Tillman] didn't play most of the season and then he comes in the Finals and hits a big shot. Stories like that give me inspiration to know that it's not over until it's over."
"You keep playing until the buzzer ends, in a sense, throughout the whole season. It's a big thing, it's kind of like reviving yourself. I got a comment from Joe one time, he was like 'your career, you were dead in the water and now you're back alive.'"
"I was like 'dang Joe', the year just started. It was a set-up or mindgame I guess, I don't know. After I started I had all those ups and downs. It's part of the process I guess. It's only going to make me better for this upcoming postseason."
Jordan Walsh has seen a significant increase in playing time this season, averaging more than double the minutes compared to last year. Despite early struggles and moments of being out of the rotation, Walsh remained determined to earn his role. He draws inspiration from other players' success stories and reflects on feedback from his coach, Joe, about reviving his career. As the Celtics prepare for the playoffs, Walsh's contributions will be crucial in defending against Tyrese Maxey.
