Boston Celtics Roster Report 2009-08-19


Boston Celtics Roster Report 2009-08-19
PLAYER NEWS:

--F Glen Davis agreed to a two-year, $6 million contract and will remain with the Celtics. Davis, a restricted free agent, averaged 15.8 points per game in the playoffs in the absence of Kevin Garnett.

--G Lester Hudson, the Celtics' unsigned second round draft pick, is recovering well from the broken finger he suffered in training camp. The backup point guard is expected to be back training by mid-August. The Celtics are still looking for veteran help at the point.

--F Shelden Williams can work on his game even when he's at home with his family. He's married to WNBA star Candace Parker.

--F Kevin Garnett is a member of a group that has worked on development of a new type of Wheaties cereal. Food scientists from the company spoke with Garnett, Albert Pujols, Peyton Manning and others while creating Wheaties Fuel, which will be introduced in September.

MEDICAL WATCH:

--F Kevin Garnett (sore right knee) had successful surgery on his right knee on May 28. He is expected to be ready to play well before training camp.

DRAFT PICK:

Lester Hudson, G, 6-3, Tennessee-Martin (second round, No. 58 overall) -- Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year in his junior and senior years. Set conference scoring record in senior year. Second in the nation (27.5 ppg) behind Stephen Curry. There have been comparisons to Eddie House, but the Celtics think he can handle the ball much better and, thus, play the point. They had him rated much higher than this spot.
