Former Boston fan favorite big man Guerschon Yabusele was also signed on this date, also in 2017.
Yabu, as he was called, had been drafted 16th overall by the Celtics in the 2016 NBA Draft, and spent a season overseas developing.
It ultimately didn’t work out with the Dancing Bear (he had several nicknames), Yabusele getting waived in the summer of 2019, but he logged 2.3 points and 1.4 rebounds per game while with the team.
