Despite Paul Pierce's suggestion that the team take its preseason training camp elsewhere, the Boston Celtics announced today that they will return to Newport for a third straight year.
The Celtics again will make Salve Regina University's Rodgers Recreation Center their home away from home for a week at the end of the month, Kristine Hendrickson, Salve's associate vice president for university relations and chief communications officer, said today.
A notable change to the Celtics' visit this year is the elimination of the intra-squad scrimmage, which was open to the public the past two years on the team's last day here. Hendrickson said there won't be a public scrimmage, and overall, the team hopes to keep the camp more low key than it has been. Other than that, the format will be roughly the same.
