BOSTON, The Boston Celtics are locking in their final roster spot just before the playoffs, and they’re rewarding production.
The team is converting G League MVP JD Davison to a two-year standard NBA contract, agent Corey Marcum told ESPN on Saturday.
🔥 Dominating in the G League
The 22-year-old guard has torched the G League this season:
- 25.1 points per game
- 7.6 assists
- 5.6 rebounds
- Played for G League Maine, the Celtics’ affiliate
🏀 His NBA Journey So Far
- Drafted 2nd round, 2022 NBA Draft by Boston
- Has appeared in 34 NBA games over 3 seasons
- Career NBA average: 1.7 points per game
- Known for his explosiveness, playmaking, and energy off the bench
🧱 Why It Matters
Boston (60-21) enters the playoffs as the No. 2 seed in the East, and adding Davison to the standard roster:
- Gives them extra guard depth
- Rewards developmental success within their system
- Ensures he’s playoff eligible if needed
They await the winner of the Orlando Magic vs. Atlanta Hawks play-in game to know their first-round opponent.
