I think Danny may be confused by this whole cutting down thing. Very weird move.

Kelly has shown some flashes. Maybe they signed him just to get him to the D-League? (I'm not sure on the exact specifics of that rule.)

Trade coming?

Kelly is an Olynyk lite. One good skill makes him a solid end of bench player. Gives us anothe big man shooter.

Final three cuts can go to the d-league, so could be.

Or perhaps there is a slightly larger trade in the works that will leave us with an open roster spot.  I know what I'm hoping for.

Looks like a Red Claws signing sense they missed out on Bentil? Very Strange.

When the rest of the league zigs, Danny zags.

Guess we wanted a stretch 4 Kelly on the bench to start the season  :D

I really have no idea why we did this but Danny's good at juggling transactions. We'll see where he goes with this.

Seems likely that it's a way to get him to the D-League and give him more guaranteed money. But for now #Boogie2BostonConfirmed

A "D-league expert" agrees.

"The Celtics signing Ryan Kelly likely means he will be playing in Maine as affiliate player."
