Xavier Silas scheduled to sign 10-day contract with Celtics

After missing out on signing Sean Kilpatrick, the Celtics have quickly moved on and are prepared to ink G-League guard, Xavier Silas, to a 10-day contact - this information via ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski. Silas would be signed by means of the Medical Hardship Exemption.

He is a 30-year-old, 6'5" guard who played 43 games for the G-League Northern Arizona Suns this season. He averaged 33 MPG, 18.4 PPG, 4.1 RPG and 1.9 APG. Xavier's primary value for Boston may be his 3-point-shooting (per CelticsWire,USAToday's Jared Weiss):

Silas presents one valuable factor to Boston in that he is a knockdown catch-and-shoot guard, who can turn into a shot in the blink of an eye and averaged 9 three-point attempts per game this season.
