Semi Ojeleye talks about his new Italian team and his memories of the Boston Celtics
While it might not have gone how some fans of the Boston Celtics might have hoped with former Celtics forward Semi Ojeleye and the team that drafted him out of SMU, the man sometimes called “Muscles Jesus” by Boston fans who made up Weird Celtics Twitter has been adjusting well to his new European team, Virtus Bologna.
The folks over at Celtics Blog managed to track down the Celtics alum after a recent practice for his new team and had Adam Taylor sit down with Ojeleye to see what’s been going on with him in his new incarnation abroad.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what the Ottowa, Kansas native had to say to Taylor about what’s been going on in his life of late, as well as some looks back at his time in green and white.
