Delonte the Artist

by Eric on February 27, 2006

While it’s not news — Delonte is as much of an artist off the court as he is on the court for the Celtics. Since there’s no Celtics games to tune into — check out some of Delonte’s artwork courtesy of NESN’s video archive!

Back on January 24th, Delonte offered the following quote as part of an NBA.com Chat:

“I’m into all kinds of art. I enjoy beautiful things and I like to create. My dad was a carpenter and I went along with him, and enjoyed working with wood, creating things. Soon, maybe this summer, I may get an art gallery going, where I can get my stuff up on display. I have a few things up on a few walls in St. Joe’s and in some living rooms of friends, but I may expand on that.”

For those of you that have not had the opportunity to do so, be sure to check out NESN’s coverage of Delonte’s artwork. NESN offers a clip that’s about a minute and a half long through their site.

I’ve tried to link directly to the video, but we can’t do that legally here — so, to check out the video, follow these instructions!

Click on over to http://www.boston.com/sports/basketball/celtics/

Once there, check out the right side of the screen for a clip called “Delonte West shows off art work”. From there, the video should load up after a short advertisement from NESN’s sponsors.

(Special thanks to RABS for the suggestion on adding this to the site!)
