Michael Finley has signed with the Boston Celtics.
The veteran swingman asked for and was granted his release from the
San Antonio Spurs earlier this week. He will earn a pro-rated portion
of the veteran's minimum of $1.1 million US.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers said after practice in Philadelphia on
Friday that he expects Finley to join the team in Boston on Saturday
and debut the next day against the Washington Wizards.
Finley sprained his left ankle early this season and appeared in
just 25 games for San Antonio. He had fallen out of the Spurs'
rotation, prompting him to request to be waived.
