It is usually the last step that completes the composition of the rosters before starting the pre-season. But Boston obviously did not need to wait any longer to sign its second “two-way contract”.
After JD Davison, it is thus another rear, member of the current Summer League formation, who has been chosen according to Yahoo! Sports : Jay Scrubb.
Drafted in the second round by the Nets in 2020, then sent to the Clippers, Jay Scrubb has since been fighting to find his place in the NBA. For the time being, he has alternated a lot with the G-League by adding the “two-way contract”.
Sacked by the Clippers last summer while recovering from a right foot injury, he eventually bounced back to G-League side Orlando Magic, who offered him a ‘two-contract’ at the end of the season, which allowed him to play two NBA games at the very end of the year.
Here he is now in Boston where he will again have the opportunity to evolve between the G-League and the NBA after delivering a fairly good Summer League in the jersey of the Celtics, at 14.4 points, 3.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 20 minutes on average over five games.
