Report: Celtics to sign Malik Fitts

Over the past few weeks, Malik Fitts and Kelan Martin have both been with the team on consecutive 10-day contracts.
It would seem that Fitts has done enough to impress the coaching staff and earn himself a full-time gig with the Celtics, as ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the sophomore forward has signed a short-term deal to remain with the team. Initial reporting suggests that Fitts’ deal will run until the end of the 2022-23 season, with next season being only partially guaranteed.
