The Boston Celtics have announced the addition of Jalen Bridges, a former two-way forward with the Phoenix Suns, to their roster for the 2025 NBA Las Vegas Summer League. At 6-foot-8 and 225 pounds, Bridges is a promising young talent. Although he averaged only 1.1 points per game in his limited NBA appearances last season, he excelled in the G League, posting 14.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.3 steals per game while demonstrating solid shooting percentages of 42.5% overall and 38.6% from three-point range.
