With the NBA draft finally in the rearview, the Boston Celtics can celebrate a ​successful draft night.





Now that we've seen the C's newest additions, we can get back to looking at the team as a whole, and that starts with The Little Guy, ​Isaiah Thomas.





Thomas was ​aggravated his injured hip in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals, which ended up costing him the remainder of the playoffs.





On the bright side, it appears that Celtics President of Basketball Operations Danny Ainge is optimistic of the All-Star point guard making a timely return.

​​Ainge doesn't just hope for IT to be ready by the start of the season, he and those around him are looking to have Thomas back for training camp.

With Thomas expected to be back with his team before the season and no surgery required to make that happen, the Celtics are should be ready to start this season firing out of a cannon.
