Banton's Celtics Comeback: Chasing Banner 19
22 Apr
Summary
- Dalano Banton rejoins Celtics, filling final postseason roster spot.
- He was traded before the 2023-24 championship but is back to help.
- Banton seeks to contribute any way possible for another title run.
Dalano Banton has rejoined the Boston Celtics, filling the final spot on their roster for the upcoming postseason. This marks Banton's third tenure with the team.
He was initially part of the 2023-24 Celtics roster but was traded before the franchise secured its 18th championship. Banton expressed gratitude for the opportunity to return and contribute to the team's pursuit of their 19th title.
Banton stated his readiness to assist in any way possible, be it through scout team practice or by providing an extra player. He last played for the Celtics on a 10-day contract in February.
After that deal expired, Banton returned to the G League's Texas Legends. He recently played in the Celtics' regular-season finale against the Orlando Magic, logging 37 minutes and contributing two points, seven assists, four rebounds, and four blocks.
Despite the unlikelihood of significant playing time this postseason, Banton remains committed to supporting the team's championship aspirations.
