David Pick (the Adrian Wojnarowski of Euroleague) of Basketball Insiders reports the Boston Celtics are poised to sign Shane Larkin.
Source: Boston Celtics, Shane Larkin agree on NBA comeback deal. Widely considered best Euroleague free-agent PG with Milos Teodosic gone.
Deal terms for Larkin have not been discussed, and Eurohoops writer Nikos Verlos (citing a source close to the player) believes the deal will be fully guaranteed and for $1.5 million. The move doesn't initially seem make sense beyond the lack of depth among ball handlers, currently reduced to just Isaiah Thomas, Marcus Smart and Terry Rozier.
