Celtics Add Veteran Torrey Craig for Depth

The Boston Celtics have signed 34-year-old veteran forward Torrey Craig to bolster their wing depth following the trade deadline, as confirmed by his agent, Mark Bartelstein. Craig, who was waived by the Chicago Bulls after the Zach LaVine trade, is known for his defensive prowess and improved three-point shooting, averaging 42.9% from beyond the arc this season. Although he has not played since late December due to an ankle injury, he is close to returning to full fitness. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla and Craig have emphasized adapting to the Celtics' style, particularly by taking available shots and providing experienced depth. Craig's addition aims to provide reliable bench support, especially on nights when Boston's main rotation players are unavailable. This signing follows the Celtics' trade of Jaden Springer, which opened a roster spot for Craig's integration into the team.
