Gonzalez started games for Boston as a rookie, and he's the only player who has started in a game for the Celtics who is on the Summer League roster.

There are a lot of Celtics fans who are hugely into Gonzalez's potential, and that won't change at this point.
Whether or not he plays much at Summer League, the future is still bright for Gonzalez, who was a late first-round pick in 2025.
The Celtics certainly want to see him keep getting better, and if he does, look out.
