On this day: Marcus Smart, Semih Erden signed; Bob Duffy born

On this day, veteran guard Marcus Smart and former Celtic center Semih Erden signed contracts with Boston, and former Celtic forward Bob Duffy was born.

Speaking of signings, it was also on this date in 2010 that former Boston big man Semih Erden signed a one-year minimum deal with a team option on the next season afterward.

Erden would play 37 games for the Celtics, averaging 4.1 points and 3.9 boards per game before he was traded with Luke Harangody to the Cleveland Cavaliers for draft assets.
