Celtics Reacts Survey: does Payton Pritchard win his starting role back next season?

With the departure of Jaylen Brown , it seems like a no-brainer: Payton Pritchard will be a starter next season.

But let's not forget that prior to Jayson Tatum 's return last season, Pritchard ceded his starting role to Baylor Scheierman after starting 47 out of the first 48 games. At the time, it was a move made in an effort to replace Anfernee Simons ' scoring in the second unit after he was traded for Nikola Vučević.

Now, Brown is in Philadelphia , but his spot will presumably be filled by the player he was traded for, Paul George . So unless PG13 is that veteran punch off the bench, it would seem reasonable to assume that the six-year pro might be part of the opening lineup.
