Jones Knew What To Say

Head Coach K.C. Jones listened during a timeout on the Celtics bench alongside Assistant Coach Jimmy Rodgers. Danny Ainge remembered about Jones: “He was just a real guy. He knew what to say. He’d been through it all as a player and as a coach, playing on a team at high expectations…He did a fantastic job of coaching. But more than that, he was a friend and a mentor, and he cared deeply about us as people.”
