The Boston Celtics are not far behind and are doing everything possible to attract players to their training camp. This time, they signed a former Duke Blue Devils guard to a training camp deal to give him a chance to win a contract with the franchise.

Last season was good for the Boston Celtics, but they know they need more talent on their bench to support the starters during the regular season and keep the score up. One way to find that talent is through training camps.

Training camps start in the middle of September, usually a couple of weeks before the start of the preseason. This is the perfect time to recruit new players who will compete for a formal contract with the franchise.
