The 17th overall pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, Young has yet to make a tangible mark at the pro level, appearing in only 60 games for the Celtics over the last two seasons. Still just 21 years old, Young's youth has been somewhat of an excuse for his lack of development, but he now finds himself in serious jeopardy of being left off of the 15-man roster this fall. While the former blue-chip recruit has prototypical size and athleticism for an NBA wing, he's struggled mightily to find his shooting stroke -- his calling card coming out of Kentucky -- amid concerns about his work ethic. Young has spent considerable time in the D-League over the past two years. As a rookie, he averaged an encouraging 21.5 points and 4.8 rebounds in 17 games for the Maine Red Claws, but his scoring numbers dipped to 15.3 points per game last season, while his three-point efficiency plummeted nearly 10 percentage points. Even with his struggles, Young still carries a fair amount of upside, but if the Celtics grow tired of waiting, he may be seeking a new home come November. Young is expected to compete with R.J. Hunter and rookie Ben Bentil for the final spot on the roster during training camp.
