2024 Fantasy Outlook
After two-and-a-half seasons in Philadelphia, the Sixers dealt Springer in February to Boston for a second-round pick. Presumably, Philly was frustrated with the defensive specialist's poor shooting. As a Sixer, Springer shot 41.6 percent from the field and 23.8 percent from behind the arc. Basically, Springer was a very young D-but-no-3 wing. Things did not change in Boston, where his minutes per game dipped below eight per contest. The 22-year-old Springer now returns to New England for this fourth season in the Association. And despite his experience, he's still younger than Celtics' rookie Baylor Scheierman. Boston is clearly focused on repeating as NBA champions, which means very few minutes will be available for both youngsters. Springer has 44 G League games under his belt, averaging 17.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game. But at the G League level, he still shot a poor 29.1 percent from three-point range. Maybe Springer will discover his shot this season in Maine? In an ideal world, the 6-foot-4 guard will eventually shoot well enough to justify minutes for his defense to shine. Unfortunately, how he does that on a loaded Celtics team is unclear. Read Past Outlooks

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Jaden Tyree Springer was born in September of 2002 in Charlotte. He is the son of Barbarita and Gary Springer. Gary was an honorable mention All-American in basketball at Iona College and was drafted by the 76ers in 1984. Springer has two older brothers, both of whom played college basketball. Springer is also cousins with NBA veteran DeAndre' Bembry. Springer first played two years of high school ball for Rocky River High School in Mint Hill, North Carolina. Springer then transferred to IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida. After his senior season, Springer was selected to play in the 2020 McDonald's All-American Game. The shooting guard then committed to the University of Tennessee where he played for one season. As a freshman, Springer posted 12.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.8 three-pointers per game. Those numbers led to Springer making the 2021 SEC All-Freshman Team. Springer then declared himself eligible for the 2021 NBA Draft and was selected with the 28th overall pick by the Philadelphia 76ers.

Illness
December 11, 2024
Springer is questionable for Thursday's game against Detroit due to an illness.
ANALYSIS
Springer has appeared in only two contests for the Celtics since Nov. 4, so his status is unlikely to affect Boston's rotation. The 22-year-old is joined by Jordan Walsh (ribs) and Sam Hauser (adductor) in a banged-up cast of bench wings for the Celtics.

2021 Fantasy Outlook
Springer was selected by the 76ers with the 28th overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft. During his freshman season at Tennessee, he averaged 12.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.2 steals. While he wasn't especially impressive as a freshman, he had a strong high school pedigree and was ranked 13th in his recruiting class. He has immediate upside as a 3-and-D player, though he took just 46 threes as a freshman (43.5%), so the sample size is relatively small, and he also went an abysmal 2-for-15 from deep in Summer League. He has potential to crack the 76ers' rotation from Day 1, though he'll have to fight off Furkan Korkmaz, Shake Milton, Tyrese Maxey and Matisse Thybulle for reserve minutes.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be on the block
GBoston Celtics
December 2, 2024
The Celtics could revisit trade talks for Springer, Michael Scotto of Hoopshype reports.
ANALYSIS
Scotto notes that the Celtics tried to shop Springer before the beginning of the season with no luck, but teams around the NBA were trying to extract draft compensation as well. A 2021 first-round pick, Springer is owed $4 million but hasn't been able to crack Boston's impressive rotation to open the season with an average of 3.5 minutes across six appearances.
