NBA: Ainge hopeful about re-signing Glen Davis
Associated Press
WALTHAM, Mass. — Danny Ainge hopes to re-sign Glen Davis after the forward sees what he can get as a free agent.
The Boston Celtics general manager said Wednesday he hasn't started negotiations with Davis, who emerged as a solid player when he filled in for injured Kevin Garnett late in the regular season and throughout the playoffs.
Ainge also is happy to have substitute guard Eddie House back for a third season. House decided to fulfill the last year of his contract for $2.86 million rather than exercise his option to become a free agent Wednesday, the start of the free agency period.
Ainge said House's teammates trust him to hit big shots when they pass to him near or beyond the 3-point arc.
