By now, most fans of the Boston Celtics have heard about the epic Catan battles played by the players on their favorite team. They might not know exactly what the nerdy board game actually entails in terms of how it works or what the goals one needs to reach in order to win in it. But, the topic has become a surprisingly current one.
And not because the strategy game that former Boston big man Grant Williams introduced to the team in his tenure with the Celtics is so engrossing, either.
