-Look for the Celtics to "immediately go after" Phil Pressey after the Missouri guard went undrafted, says Gary Washburn of the Boston Globe (via Twitter).-

- per adrian woj twitter celts officially sign pressey-

Here are the list of notable undrafted players.

CJ Leslie - nyn signed him
Myck Kabongo
Trevor Mbakwe
Kenny Kadji
Dewayne Dedmon
Jackie Carmichael
James Southerland
Alexander Lypovvy
Brandon Paul
Adonis Thomas
Brandon Triche
Seth Curry
DJ Stephens - interest by the heat to sign him
Robert Covington
BJ Young
Micheal Snaer
Mophotou Yarou
Rodney williams - 76rs signed him

All i can say is wow. This was not a deep deep draft but flat, and some of these guys in bold were actually listed to go in the 1st round by some draft mocks earlier in the year and at least go in the 2nd round.

Celtics i hope grab a few more guys for the summer league. I know Danny must be happy as heck getting Pressey for nothing (if rumors are true).

Kabongo should definitely get an invite as well. Couldn't believe he wasn't drafted.

  • A true Celtic plays with heart.
Myck Kabongo
Kenny Kadji
Seth Curry


This is the 3 I want us going after..

Kadji may be old, but his ability to come in and score points for 10-15 high energy minutes especially since he'll be on a cheap undrafted contract is invaluable..

Go for Seth Curry if you want a PG with decent ball handling, but amazing 3pt shooting... He's shooting at a nice clip, and is the son of Dell and brother of Stephen.. Can't go wrong in my book especially if he's undrafted.

And PLEASE GO AFTER MYCK come on DANNY!

Two summers ago, he came to Austin as a much-hyped point guard, a five-star McDonald’s All-American who most assumed would be the second coming of T.J. Ford (or at least a major difference maker).

Thursday night in the 2013 NBA Draft, Kabongo went undrafted (60 total selections), the latest dagger in what has been a brutal year for the Canadian, who was suspended 23 games of his sophomore season by the NCAA for receiving impermissible benefits and then lying about it to Texas compliance officials. The Longhorns didn’t make the NCAA tournament.

Thirteen point guards went in front of Kabongo, who averaged 15 points, 5 rebounds and 5.5 assists as a sophomore.

What you guys think of Pressey. Don't know much about him but from this clip he looks very fast and makes all kinds of difficult passes at full speed.

1 game does not make a player.

He is way too inconsistent.

I wish they also got cj leslie but nyn beat us to it.

Pressey had an oustanding game last year scoring 19 pts and having 19 assist. According to scouting reports he has excellent vision when standing still, when driving in, in traffic, has a reliable pocket jump shot from 18 ft and considered a pure pg. But his overall stats were pretty mediocre. The problem is his team Missouri didn't have much talent on the team. The year prior his better stats reflect the fact the team had quite bit of decent players.

don't know much about him and he has been prob signed for just the rest of summer and tryout basis. Not bad when we don't have any other pure pg's on the team other than Rondo.

Why don't you tell everyone who you'd sign, and why, based on your own expertise?
