According to the Realgm User Jeff23, Keyon is going to come back for the veterans minimum.

Now before you criticize this guy because he could be just another user trying to stir up our hearts for nothing (like the vin baker guy who said Ray was coming back), I must tell you I've read this guy's posts before on realgm, and his "sources" have been correct before.

-He stated that Jeff Green wasn't getting 4/40 when it was reprted that Green was. In fact, he even said the figures were around 4/36, which were right on the mark. Or atleast they were right because he stated this before it had come out that Green had verbally agreed to a deal of 4 years, $36 million. We won't know what the details are now because Green's deal is apparently being delayed for some reason.

-He also stated Chris Wilcox was coming back for the veterans minimum days before Wilcox's deal was announced by the media.

Overall, this guy seems legit. And I couldn't be happier Keyon's going to be back to be our fifth guard. He's a great locker room presence and he brings defensive tenacity that this team likes. Now to fill out the last spot (which isn't going to be Christmas or Smith, no championship contender has 4 rookies. That being said I do hope Christmas finds a nice home in the league).

Peaches is who I want but he;s unrealistic because he's too good to just be a failsafe option in case this team has injuries. Marquis Daniels would be more realistic.

Keyon coming back would be great for Rondo.

I'll wait till we see a better source.

This. Though I also denied that big sexy's twitter was correct about Courtney Lee and like an hour later it became official so I'm not denying anything anymore

I read this as "Kenyon" thinknig we'd signed Kenyon Martin... D'oh!

I'm fine with Dooling back at the vet. min.

[WeMadeIt17]

If true I'll welcome it. Good defender showed signs of life in the post-season. But Good locker room guy. Would love to see more flexing on the bench.

Amen. Welcome to the 21st century, where randoms can break stories.

I'd be pumped if Dooling came back for the minimum. I don't like his game, but I love his jockosopher credentials and we need a third string PG (I don't want Lee or Avery doing this, and Moore is gone). So if we don't get Dooling, we need Marquis or something.

This would also explain why the Celtics didn't allow Melo to get #51.

[Yoki_IsTheName]

If he is, thats great.

He's a very good teammate and the young guys could use a guy like him to be around. He may not give us a lot on the court, but he can sure show that character is important as well.

While this may or may not be a legit source, I think the fact that the Celtics wouldn't let Fab Melo have #51 is pretty indicative about their plans.

Amen. Welcome to the 21st century, where randoms can break stories.

The random's that make up fake stuff to troll others are even more numerous.

Dooling actually started to grow on me by the end of our season so I'm happy about this.
