"Given that Dixon has almost no shot of making the Boston roster following the preseason, this signing is targeted at gaining his Affiliate Player rights. Dixon is likely to be waived in the next few days and will then play in the NBAGL with Maine. Another team could foil Boston’s plans by claiming Dixon on waivers or by signing him after he clears waivers. However, that is unlikely, as he hasn’t been signed by anyone else to this point.

The Celtics roster currently stands at 20 (the offseason maximum) with the signing of Dixon. Boston has 14 players on fully guaranteed NBA contracts, two players on NBA/NBAGL Two-Way contracts and four players who are on partial/non-guaranteed contracts. The final four players are Dixon, Jonathan Holmes, L.J. Peak and Andrew White. All four are likely to be waived, with Boston hoping to eventually get them to Maine to continue the development process.

This would leave one open roster spot on the 15 man regular season roster. Options have dwindled quite a bit to fill out the roster at this point. Danny Ainge may choose to leave that spot open and see what develops in-season for filling that 15th position."

Here comes Rollie who will watch a few highlight videos and immediately compare him to (insert past Celtic here) or Sam Jones if he's ever played tennis, racquetball, or ping pong.
