Boston Celtics sign former Grand Canyon standout Gabe McGlothan to camp deal
The Gilbert, Arizona native last put up 15.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals, and 0.9 blocks per game with Noblesville Boom.
The Boston Celtics have added former Grand Canyon standout Gabe McGlothan to their training camp roster via a camp deal, according to recent reports from Spotrac senior contributor Keith Smith. The Celtics' G League affiliate, the Maine Celtics, had originally acquired McGlothan's G League rights through a trade.
McGlothan, who went undrafted out of Grand Canyon, instead signed with the Denver Nuggets' G League team, the Grand Rapids Gold. He also had brief stints with the Noblesville Boom and a 10-day trial with the Indiana Pacers before the Boom transferred his contract to the Maine Celtics in August.
Born in Gilbert, Arizona, McGlothan showcased his abilities with the Noblesville Boom, tallying 15.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.0 steals, and 0.9 blocks per contest. He shot 52.2% overall and 42.3% from beyond the arc, averaging 4.2 three-pointers per game. Standing at 6-foot-7, McGlothan is not expected to make Boston's open two-way roster spot as a 27-year-old prospect. However, his unique profile may allow him to find a better-suited league in the future.
