4:49pm: The Celtics have already waived Kissoonlal, according to NBA.com’s transaction log.
4:21pm: Reggie Kissoonlal has signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Celtics, tweets Jared Weiss of The Athletic. He is expected to be waived and will wind up with the team’s G League affiliate in Maine, Weiss adds.
The seven-footer has been playing overseas since going undrafted out of Northwestern State in 2019. He spent last season with Randers in Denmark.
The Exhibit 10 contract will provide Kissoonlal with a bonus of $50K if he spends at least 60 days with Maine.
Once the moves are complete, Boston will have one open spot on its 20-man roster for the preseason.
Regimald Kissoonlal… 2019 Jump 25 All-Star Game participant.
Thiis 7’1 guy has a ton of skill and potentand I knew he was a couple years away from being a legitimate nba caliber prospect. His coach in that event thought the exact same thing, as he played in the league as a 7ft center in the 80’s.
RIP Granville Waiters!
Looking forward to seeing where this goes with Kissoonlal.
It’s hard to even find a decent scouting report on him, which is odd for 7 footer who can hit 3s
He played at an naia school in Indiana called Marian. That could possibly help in finding something.
If this year is anything like last year with GLeague guys getting called up, Kissoonlal will play in the league this season.
No offense to this dude, but I’d rather not have the rash of injuries that caused all this call ups
