Former Celtics big man Luke Kornet was introduced by the San Antonio Spurs on Monday, and brought all the quirky Luke Kornet flavor we saw the last four-plus seasons in Boston to his press conference.

Luke Kornet has been known to have a sense of humor. And that carried over from Boston to San Antonio. Kornet was asked why he chose to wear No. 7 with the Spurs, to which he said he “hoped to be a third of the player Tim Duncan was,” via Spurs reporter Matthew Tynan. Duncan, who spent his entire 19-year career with the Spurs, wore No. 21.

Kornet played in 73 games for the Boston Celtics last season. He averaged six points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists while shooting 66.8% from the field. However, most of his impact came outside of the boxscore, with his screening, short-roll creation and rim-protection all creating a positive contribution.
