Since joining the Celtics, Torrey Craig has made an immediate impact defensively, recording four blocks in just 18 minutes. After a standout performance against the 76ers, where he logged three blocks, Craig articulated his defensive philosophy, expressing the importance of challenging every opponent's shot. With a strong team record, the Celtics are looking to solidify their defense as they face crucial upcoming matches against rivals. Craig believes enhancing their defensive presence is key to becoming a more formidable opponent as the season progresses.
I just want to continue setting the tone for the team, make guys have to work for every basket. I want to contest everything and try to block everything that comes to the rim.
While Craig's blocking pace may be unsustainable, if he and the rest of the team can be menacing enough defensively, he's right: Boston can be even more difficult to compete with.
