Jared Sullinger, the 2012 Celtics draft pick from Columbus, Ohio, is retiring from basketball after a gritty, injury-plagued career that took him from Boston to Toronto and finally overseas — only to return home to Ohio State as Director of Player Development. Once a highly touted recruit whose draft stock fell due to back issues, Sullinger battled through surgery, became a key contributor for the Celtics with solid stats, and eventually found his calling mentoring the next generation. Grateful for the support that carried him through, he’s thrilled to trade his jersey for a coaching role, giving back to the program that shaped his dream.
