Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla was recently spotted at the Turkish League Finals to scout Nigel Hayes-Davis, a player with nearly a decade of interest from the team. At 30 years old, Hayes-Davis, who had previously worked out for the Celtics in 2016 and is now a standout in the EuroLeague, could provide a low-cost depth option for Boston’s frontcourt. After averaging 16.7 points per game and being named to the All-EuroLeague First Team, Hayes-Davis has drawn serious NBA interest, with his current team, Fenerbahce, open to facilitating his return to the league.
