Boston Celtics newcomer Josh Minott quickly became a fan favorite in preseason games and was nicknamed "The Lawnmower" by his teammates.

With abundant physical strength and unlimited energy, the young forward averaged 12.3 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in three warm-up games, showing amazing potential on both offense and defense.

In Sunday night's 138-107 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, Minot had his best season since joining the team, scoring 16 points and grabbing 6 rebounds. Coach Joe Mazzulla praised Minot's energy and his ability to make the team more competitive.

Minot is known for his daring offense and his ability to shoot from deep. He's even hit multiple three-pointers in the last two games, including one that resulted in a four-point play that drew cheers from the crowd. Defensively, his long arms and quickness make life difficult for opponents. He calls himself the fastest player on the team, and he frequently creates damage in transition.

Jaylen Brown, the team's core player, praised Minot as the perfect puzzle piece for the Celtics' system. Brown said: "He is a long-armed, explosive forward, the type of player we have needed most in the past few years. The energy and speed he brings are too important."

After a quiet period with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Minot is experiencing a new lease of life in Boston. He admitted, "I really like the environment and team here. Everything is going very smoothly. Whether it's the coaching staff, teammates, or training staff, everything is perfect."

In just a few games, Minot has already earned the trust of his teammates and coaching staff. If he can continue this momentum, the "lawnmower" might become the Celtics' most dangerous secret weapon this season.
