Despite playing just 17.1 minutes per game, Jared Sullinger leads the Celtics in personal fouls with 74, and he understand that his rookie status isn’t helping his cause.
“It’s fouls,” he said. “I can’t go over to the ref and make him change the call. It goes in one ear and out the other.
“I probably do lead the league in [raising] my arms up after fouls. I’m a rookie. There’s no way I can handle a ref. They are not going to listen to me.
“So being a rookie, sometimes you always get the short end of the stick, but you’ve got to pay your dues around here in this league.”
