Ex- Boston big man Greg Monroe inks 10-day with Jazz; Former Celtics forward Semi Ojeleye cut by Clips

It has been a bit of mixed bag of results in terms of transactions for Boston Celtics alumni recently with former Celtics forward Semi Ojeleye being cut by the Los Angeles Clippers per Celtics Blog’s Keith Smith, while onetime Boston big man Greg Monroe managed to get himself signed to a 10-day deal with the Utah Jazz according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.

Ojeleye and Boston parted ways this past offseason, with the Southern Methodist University product signing a deal with the Milwaukee Bucks to start the season, while it has been a bit longer since Monroe last played for the Celtics, his second of two stints ending in the latter days of the 2018-19 NBA season.

The Georgetown product has been averaging 5.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 1.4 assists per game this season in short stints with the Milwaukee Bucks, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Washington Wizards.

Ojeleye faired poorly in Milwaukee this season, recording just 2.9 boards and points apiece per game with the Bucks, but looked like he might have found a home as a deep rotation player with the Clippers, putting up 4.1 points and 1.4 rebounds per contest in the 10 games he appeared in for L.A.
