The Celtics and second-round pick Jabari Bird are working on a two-way contract, tweets Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe.
The 6’6″ shooting guard out of California reportedly impressed team team officials with his summer league play. He was the 56th player taken in this year’s draft after averaging 14.1 points and 4.7 rebounds as a senior with the Golden Bears.
It appears as though the Celtics will have 16 players in camp with guaranteed contracts, so a two-way deal may be Bird’s best path to a future with the team. Boston has already signed Kadeem Allen to one of its two-way contracts.
Is this the first Celtics Bird since Larry?
Yes.
It’s easy to tell the difference:
Jabari = Crow
Larry = Dove
Just sayin……
That feels racist
