According to Hoopsrumors.com

Celtics Sign Shavlik Randolph
March 1 at 8:47am CST By Luke Adams
Shavlik Randolph has received his letter of clearance from China and has signed a 10-day contract with the Celtics, agent Joel Bell tells Shams Charania of RealGM.com. According to Charania, Randolph is participating in the Celtics' morning shootaround today, so it sounds as if the team will announce the signing later today, making Randolph eligible for tonight's game against the Warriors.

Randolph, 29, has been out of the NBA since the 2009/10 season, when he briefly appeared in three games each with the Heat and Trail Blazers. However, as Ryan Raroque of Hoops Rumors noted last night, the former Duke Blue Devil had a tremendous season in the Chinese Basketball Association, averaging 32.0 PPG and 14.6 RPG in 28 games for the Foshan Long Lions.

  • Everyone's excited for the new era.
We might as well have a Chinese D-League team affiliate.

He was terrible at Duke...left early and I was shocked he made the NBA

Highly touted out of high school....his grandfather Ron Shavlik was a legend at NC State in the 50s or early 60s

Per youtube highlights he can... umm... be a solid help defender? I mean really, he has very few "highlights"... I don't judge players by them but I'd like to see what he does... anyone have his China highlights or something? Is he a 3 or 4? Sometimes he looked kinda tall in the videos (his summer league clips) then when he played for the cHeat he looked shorter.

Edit: He's 6-10, so a PF.

  Paperwork would be too confusing.

  Suddenly I'm amused, picturing Danny sitting Fab Melo down and telling he's playing in China for a few weeks. Makes Maine in January seem pretty inviting.

Had a horrific ankle injury that derailed his career for a bit.

Those of you clamoring for height, careful what you wish for. I'm guessing the Celts lost out on Amundson.

I remember him as a promising backup big man, but then he kind of disappeared from the radars.

Anyone knows what he did over the last couple of years?

to those that wanted to "blow up" the team - imagine a lineup of TWill, Crawford, DJ White, Shavlik, and Melo running down the court wearing Celtic green and try not to dry heave

it would be tankerific for sure, but... yikes

Much worse. Shelden gave us a few good games. I don't see Randolph even doing that.

http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap/226430/Bulls-To-Sign-Lou-Amundson-To-10-Day-Contract

All signs point to the Chicago Bulls signing Lou Amundson to a 10-day contract on Saturday.

The signing would bring the Bulls' roster to the maximum 15 players, bringing big-man insurance while Taj Gibson recovers from a sprained MCL in his left knee.

The Bulls have enough money under the hard cap to sign Amundson for the rest of the season.

Ahh, okay. Thanks for the info.
