Celtics extend partnership with Red Claws three more seasons

According to the Red Claws Twitter handle, the Celtics have extended their partnership with the D-League affiliate team for three more seasons:

The Red Claws have been useful for Danny Ainge and Boston, particularly as an outlet for developing young guys who otherwise wouldn't be getting minutes. Stints in Maine proved useful for Avery Bradley as he developed in his early years. Kris Joseph and MarShon Brooks also logged time with the Red Claws, as did last year's rookie out of Kentucky James Young.

Young put on a show with the Red Claws in a few games.
