Celtics Summer League standout center Charles Bassey is not planning on playing overseas next season, sources told CelticsBlog. Multiple outlets previously reported that he was seriously considering signing with the Serbian club Partizan Belgrade, but he currently plans to play in the NBA next season.
Bassey would especially love to sign with the Celtics if the opportunity presented itself, sources said. How realistic that might be remains to be seen.
After waiving JD Davison, the Celtics have one open roster spot. But, as the roster currently stands, signing a 15th player would put them back over the second apron, something the team has actively worked to get below this offseason.
