Boston reportedly tenders training camp deal to DJ Steward

Yet another transaction has gone down for the Boston Celtics this NBA offseason — and before you ask, no, it is not a trade for now Portland Trail Blazers point guard Jrue Holiday. Per Spotrac’s Keith Smith, the Celtics have signed DJ Steward to a training camp deal.

“Steward will likely join the Maine Celtics of the G League following the preseason,” writes Real GM. A 6-foot-1 point guard who played his college ball for the Duke Blue Devils and went unselected as an early entrant into the 2021 NBA draft, Steward has since played for the Stockton Kings — the developmental affiliate for the Sacramento Kings — where he has put up 12 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 4.1 assists per game over an average of 22.2 minutes per contest.

The Oak Park native shot 40.9% from 3, 45.8% from the field, and 82.1% from the free throw line during his time in Stockton.
