Mickey, a 6-8 forward from LSU, split time between the Celtics and the Maine Red Claws of the NBA Developmental League since being drafted in the second round by Boston with the 33rd pick overall in 2015. He played in 25 NBA games last season, averaging 1.5 points and 1.4 rebounds in 3.6 minutes per game.

Mickey joins ex-Celtics big man Kelly Olynyk in Miami. Olynyk signed a four-year, $50 million free agent deal with the Heat in July.

good for him to get another chance

I've been wondering about Zeller, one would think someone could use him on their bench.

Also, good luck to Mickey. He was not a bad kid in any way, but just never seemed to figure out the NBA game fast enough to help the Celtics.
