Celtics' Nathan Knight: Signs with Boston

Knight agreed to a two-way contract with Boston on Sunday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Knight was recently cut loose by the Knicks, but he quickly caught on with Boston as one of their three two-way players heading into the regular season. The 26-year-old, who spent the previous two seasons in Minnesota, profiles as a different archetype than Boston's other backup bigs, as Knight is more mobile at 6-foot-8 while possessing some floor-spacing abilities. The 26-year-old averaged 3.7 points and 1.5 rebounds while shooting 56.8 percent from the field and 36.4 percent from deep across 37 appearances for the Timberwolves in 2022-23.
