Although Max Strus did not see the best start to his professional career, he sure is living the dream as Miami Heat makes it to the NBA Finals in a generational campaign. Despite not being drafted in the 2019 draft class, Strus did sign a two-way contract with the Boston Celtics initially. 

Unfortunately for him, the Celtics would have to waive him as they couldn’t accommodate Strus for the final spot on the team’s opening-day roster. He would then start his career with the Chicago Bulls, signing a two-way contract with the franchise.
