It was also on this date in 2006, the Celtics signed guard Allan Ray as a free agent out of Villanova after going undrafted in the 2006 NBA Draft.
Ray, a native of the Bronx, New York, was first sent to a D League (as the G League was called in that era) assignment with the Austin Toros, but was soon called up to play with the parent club.
The former Wildcat would play 47 games in total for the Celtics, averaging 6.2 points, 1.5 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game.
