Celtics Close in On Multi-Year Deal for JET


Numerous sources are reporting that the Celtics are in the final stages of a multi-year contract with Mavericks sharp-shooter Jason Eugene Terry (hence, JET). The former Arizona Wildcat, now 34 years old, would bring the scoring boost off of the bench Danny Ainge has been craving for years. Terry would bring the Celtic's perhaps the leagues most valuable bench scorer, a player with the ability to score in bunches and also handle some ball handling duties. More than likely, the C's will use their non-taxpayers Mid-Level Exception which should come around just over $5M/year.
