Terry Rozier appears on ESPN -- reveals frustration at his reserve role

Terry Rozier played as a reserve for much of the season

Terry Rozier has previously expressed his frustration at playing a reserve role in Boston, and he joined yesterday's edition of ESPN's 'First Take' to explain his reasoning.

I think anybody that was in my shoes than can go and start and, you know, go to a Game 7 in the Eastern Conference finals and then come back and we have the season that we have this year, I feel like anybody in my position would say it’s tough. I might have to go. I might have to go. You know, I put up with a lot this year, so, you know, I said what I said after the season, and I think we all know that I’m not trying to step into that again.

Rozier excelled for the Celtics during the 2018 playoffs, although the presence of Kyrie Irving largely confided him to the bench this season.
