The Boston Celtics announced the signing of forward Juwan Morgan to what has been described elsewhere by Celtics Blog’s Keith Smith as a two year deal in a press release on Sunday morning. The transaction, first reported by The Athletic’s Shams Charania, will see the three-season NBA veteran join the team for the rest of this season and all of next, the latter of which will be an unguaranteed deal per Smith.
A camp invitee for the Celtics over the summer, Morgan put up 1.5 points on 31-of-59 shooting (52.5% from the field), and 1.2 rebounds in 6.0 minutes per game with the team so far this season and played in 33 games for the Maine Celtics of the NBA G League in 2021-22, producing 12.3 points on 53.1% shooting, 6.2 rebounds, 2.7 assists, and 1.0 steals in 28.2 minutes per contest at the developmental level.
Per the Celtics, Morgan reached the 20-point mark six times with Maine this season and signed the rest-of-season on deal after his most recent 10-day contract with Boston expired.
Juwan Morgan's deal with the Boston Celtics will be a two-year contract, with non-guaranteed salary in the second season, a source tells @celticsblog.
