Celtics Signing "ISO Joe" to a 10-Day Contract

Yep, that Joe Johnson.

40 freaking years old.  Jeez, Brad, WTF are you thinking?


BOSTON (CBS) — The Celtics are bringing back a blast from the past to fill out their COVID-stricken roster. Boston is reportedly signing Joe Johnson to a 10-day contract, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.

Johnson first entered the NBA as a member of the Celtics back in 2001, when the team drafted him with the 10th overall pick. The 40-year-old hasn’t played in the NBA since the 2017-18 season, when he appeared in 55 games between the Utah Jazz and the Houston Rockets.

20 years later He returns to his original team. Unbelievable what this league is turning into. I wonder if he will ever hit the floor. He was a stud for that 3 on 3 league team he was on

The Celtics traded rookie Joe Johnson on February 20, 2002. The 19 year, 305 day gap between his stints with the Celtics is not only the longest in NBA history, it’s longer than the entire career of every NBA player but five (Carter, Parish, Garnett, Willis, Nowitzki).

Dig and scrape for anyone.wirh a pair of sneakers?

This COVID resurgence is creating roster havoc. I saw Johnson about a week ago. I was stopped for a traffic light and a boy scout was helping him cross the street.

Unbelievable so believe it.
