Former Boston Celtics wing Ricky Davis to reportedly be next head coach of Minnesota North

Davis played for the Celtics between 2003 and 2006.

Another alumnus of the Boston Celtics seems poised to join the ranks of those on the other side of the clipboard. Onetime Boston wing Ricky Davis reportedly expected to be hired as the next head coach for the boys’ basketball team at Minneapolis North, per Chris Long of KSTP-TV Sports.

The onetime Iowa player will lead the Minneapolis high school squad in his first coaching job. He retired as a player after being released by the (then) Erie BayHawks (now, Lakeland Magic) D League (as the G League was called in that era) team in 2016.

Davis played for the Celtics between 2003 and 2006 after being dealt there with Chris Mihm, Michael Stewart and draft assets for Tony Battie, Eric Williams, and Kedrick Brown.

He was a popular player with fans until he was dealt with Mark Blount, Marcus Banks, Justin Reed and draft considerations for Wally Szczerbiak, Michael Olowokandi, Dwayne Jones and a pick in 2006.
