Nevertheless, the Celtics clearly want to see more from the second round pick, who is on a two-way contract with the franchise. Fortunately for Watson, he showcased his potential with a strong double-double performance against the Long Island Nets. Watson dropped 16 points, pulled down 15 rebounds and dished out 4 assists during the game.
