Canobie Lake Park Soothes Boston Celtic's Foot Ailment

A member of the Boston Celtics joined kids in a thorough drenching at Canobie Lake Park on Friday.

Kelly Olynyk, a rookie center drafted No. 13 overall a few months ago by the Boston Celtics, took a break from rehabbing his foot Friday by getting drenched on Canobie Lake Park's Boston Tea Party with dozens of children as part of a trip with the Celtics Shamrock Foundation, according to ESPN.

ESPN has reported that Olynyk had fun at the park Friday with 30 children as part of the program. Olynyk hasn't been able to work out with the Canadian national team this summer due to plantar fasciitis, a condition which ESPN has reported is "improving" as the Celtics' training camp nears.

Olynyk is the second professional Boston athlete to make a trip to Canobie this summer.
