Jared Sullinger Putting in Work in the Columbus Pro-AM League


LeBron James isn't the only player who is going home to Ohio this summer. Jared Sullinger is also home in Ohio, but it's definitely not the same. Sully didn't change teams in the off season - at least not yet, Danny's not done trading yet, though. Sully is putting in work on the court while he's giving back to his community. He returned home to Columbus, Ohio this summer to play alongside his brother JJ on a talented NCBC Hoopsters team.

Jared Sullinger has been working out in Boston part of the off season and he has vowed to get stronger and lose weight and to increase his conditioning and ability to stay on the court. Red Auerbach was always big on players coming into camp in top condition. He felt that gave the Celtics a jump on the competition that used camp to get into shape. It's nice to see Sully playing ball and working hard in the off season.

He does look a bit more defined in the chest and shoulder area but it's hard to tell with the sort of loose jersey on whether he's lost weight or not. His game is looking good and any organized basketball he fits into the summer has to be good as nothing gets you in basketball condition better than playing basketball. I really like Sully and hope that when the dust settles, he will still be on the Celtics this upcoming season. Danny may be hot on the trail of Kevin Love, but I believe that given another year or so, Sully can be just as good.

  1. That workout link shows a very easy workout. I wonder if Sully is not injured given the east of it and focus on core strength. But it is not that hard of a workout.
