On this day in Boston Celtics history, the team signed guard Damon Jones in 1999 to the first of two 10-day contracts as a late-season addition, despite having no playoffs to play for.
The Galveston native was a career journeyman, undrafted out of Houston in 1997, and Boston the second of ten eventual stops for the shooter. In his brief stay of just 13 games with the Celtics, Jones logged 5.8 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists while shooting 45.5 % from 3-point range. Unfortunately for the Texan, he only shot 38.7 % overall in an era that didn’t value the three quite the same.

We already had several rules in place. We limited ourselves to ten minutes per selection, just like the Saints’ war room will have to work with in real life, but we also weren’t allowed to trade in this mock draft. We’ll take that restrictor plate off next time.
Klaassen bites back after VAR debacle in Ajax’s win over Willem II
Referee Marc Nagtegaal and the VAR did not make a good impression on Davy Klaassen at the weekend, with the midfielder finding it truly incomprehensible that Ajax did not get a penalty against Willem II.
While Ajax only won the match against Willem II (2-1) deep into the second half, Klaassen never really doubted the outcome. “If you watch the whole match, I didn’t have the feeling that we wouldn’t win. I think it was a deserved victory,” he says on ESPN.
Real Madrid stars involved in training ground bust-up ahead of Arsenal clash
Last year Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti made a consistent point of emphasizing just how positive the atmosphere was in the dressing room, calling it the best he has ever been in charge of.
