He plans to train at Texas Southern University and will progress day by day under coach慎 Mel Wright and manager Bill Virdon.

Celtics and 76ers mirror each other in run to final
Boston and Philadelphia clash as both reach the conference final after identical 62-20 regular season marks. The Celtics won the Atlantic by tiebreaker, then beat the 76ers in two semi finals last year while Philadelphia swept its opening playoff series. This season Boston hosts Philadelphia in the opener after a day off, with debates over scheduling and home court. Julius Erving says Boston is stronger, while Boston notes added inside scoring with Parish and McHale and Andrew Toney’s shooting lift the 76ers.
