Celtics bring back Delonte West

Wed 1st, September 2010

Boston, MA (Sports Network) - The Boston Celtics have signed free agent guard Delonte West.

Terms of the deal were not released, but the Boston Herald reports it is a non-guaranteed contract for the upcoming season.

West was an original draft pick of the Celtics in 2004, taken 24th overall out of Saint Joseph's.

The 27-year-old veteran of six seasons spent the last two-plus years in Cleveland. He was limited to 35 games in 2009-10 and 64 games a year earlier dealing with a myriad of legal and health problems. He was dealt to Minnesota last July and was subsequently waived.

West's best years came in Boston where he averaged a career-high 12.2 points with 4.4 assists in 69 games during the 2006-07 campaign. He started 71 games for the C's a year prior when he averaged a career-best 4.6 assists and 4.1 rebounds while scoring 11.8 per game.

In 339 career games, including 221 starts, West has averaged 9.9 points, 3.7 assists and 3.1 boards while connecting on 37.8 percent of his three-point tries.

West also spent a brief stint with Seattle in 2007-08 after being dealt by Boston in the trade that netted Ray Allen from the SuperSonics.
