Former Boston Celtics big man Vitor Faverani has reportedly signed a new deal in his native Brazil to play for Clube de Regatas do Flamengo of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A league, according to Alberto De Road of our sister site HoopsHype.
The center played for Boston in the 2013-14 season after signing a three-year deal with the team following a strong showing with EuroLeague’s Valencia Basket. That three-year contract amounted to 37 total games with the Celtics, however, after he suffered a torn lateral meniscus during his first season that forced him to miss all of his anticipated second season.
Faverani has since played for Maccabi Tel Aviv, Murcia, Barcelona and Gipuzkoa before signing with Flamengo this offseason. The Porto Alegre native averaged 4.4 points and 3.5 rebounds per game as a Celtic.
