Marbury is now officially a member of the Boston Celtics like he said before on YouTube and I so can’t wait until him and Eddie House meet up as teammates!
“The Celtics announced today that they have signed free agent guard Stephon Marbury. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed, though two NBA sources said before Marbury cleared waivers that he would sign for the prorated veteran minimum of $1.3 million for the rest of the season.
“We are very excited to have a player of Stephon’s caliber joining our team. Our entire organization is confident in the belief that Stephon can play an important role in helping us to win another championship,†said president of basketball operations Danny Ainge.
Ainge said on sports-radio WEEI’s “The Big Show” shortly after 4 p.m. that he expects Marbury will play tonight, saying he’ll likely be “thrown into the fire.”
Good luck tonight Mr. Marbury! With career averages of nearly 20 and 8, I doubt you’ll need it!
