On this day: Celtic John Bagley re-signs; most team rebounds vs Pistons

On this day, Celtic point guard John Bagley returned to Boston after a long injury.

On this day in 1992, former Boston Celtic point guard John Bagley re-signed with the team in free agency. Bagley played his collegiate basketball at Boston College, and was drafted 12th overall in the 1982 NBA draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers.

He would play for that club and the (then) New Jersey (now Brooklyn) Nets before the Nets would trade the Bridgeport native to the Celtics in 1989 for draft assets and cash. After his first campaign with the team, tendonitis and a subsequent surgery kept Bagley sidelined for the entire 1990-91 season, and his rehabilitation stretched beyond his contract into the following season.
