The Celtics have signed Esteban Batista to a 1-year contract. The 6′10″, 268 pound forward/center could get a lot more playing time than most think at center. He has played in 70 games (3 starts) in his 2-year NBA career and he has averaged 8.2 minutes, 1.7 points, 2.5 rebounds and 0.2 assists per game. He needs to work on his shooting as he has only hit 43.8% of his shots from the floor and 61.7% of his shots from the free throw line.

The Celtics have signed Dahntay Jones to give them some firepower off of the bench. He played in 78 games (25 starts) last season for the Grizzlies and he averaged 21.4 minutes, 7.5 points, 2.0 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game. He was also an outstanding shooter as he hit 47.7% of his shots from the floor, 41.7% from three point range and 79.3% from the free throw line.

Jones has now played in 221 games (36 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 15.6 minutes, 5.1 points, 1.6 rebounds and 0.6 assists per game. He has hit 44.2% of his shots from the floor, 33% from three point range and 72.2% from the free throw line over his NBA career.
