After three seasons with the Pacers, Brissett signed a two-year deal with the Celtics this summer. The wing finds himself on a new team with surprising depth issues. While the starting five for Boston might be championship worthy, the departure of Grant Williams exposes what was already a weak bench, particularly at the wing. Brissett and Sam Hauser are expected to fight for Williams' now-open 26 minutes per game. Brissett's defensive versatility should give him the nod over Hauser. But some of that time will go to newly-acquired Kristaps Porzingis. Brissett's defensive hustle is often impressive, but it needs to be due to his ugly shooting. In three of his four NBA seasons, the Syracuse product shot worse than 42 percent from the field. Last season, over 65 games, the wing shot a poor 38.6 percent from the field and 31.0 percent from behind the arc. In other words, Brissett is much more "D" than "3". Boston fans do not need more retched three-point attempts -- there were plenty of those last season. If Hauser finds his stroke (42 percent career three-point shooter) and continues to improve his defense, Brissett could find himself deeper on the bench. Regardless, Brissett should get opportunities to prove himself, but it's whether he can convert those chances into meaningful playing time is yet to be determined. Keep in mind, Brissett's 25 starts in 2021-22 were for a Pacers squad that went 25-57.
