Jersey update: Marquis Daniels will wear #7 for the Celtics this season...
WEEI.com's Jess Camerato spoke with Daniels' former teammate - Stephen Graham. Here's how Graham describes Daniels' game:
“Marquis has got a funny odd-type game because he's always been, even
since high school when we played against him, he doesn't do anything
really fast, he doesn't do anything really slow. His game looks kind of
nonchalant but it's really effective, more like a slashing, mid-range
game,” Graham said. “He's got really long arms and he's really good at
anticipating, so he's got quick hands and he's good at anticipating
where the defense is going to move. He's not an overall strong guy but
he's got like a wiry strength to him, so he's kind of deceptive. You
won't think that he's as strong as he looks.”
On playing the point:
“He's pretty vocal. He's not a solidified point guard, he's a
multi-position player, but he's just as loud as any other point guard
that you'd play with and he can see the floor just as well as any other
point guard that you would play against. He's one of those tweener guys
who can play the point, shooting guard, and small forward. He
definitely has a high IQ and is probably one of the better passers I've
seen playing and as a slasher as well.”
