Celtics Put Pruitt On Waivers

"The Celtics have placed guard Gabe Pruitt on waivers after choosing not to pick up the option year on his contract. Pruitt, who played in 47 games last season, was projected as a backup for starting point guard Rajon Rondo, but was relegated to a bit role after the February acquisition of Stephon Marbury. "We like Gabe but he was not going to get a chance to play much with Marquis (Daniels) coming in," Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge said. "He has a bright future and this will give him a chance to play elsewhere (Boston.com)."

DP reported that this was most likely going to happen this week. Basically Gabe is gone. It will be interesting to see if he gets picked up by another team at some point. My guess is that he will. I am still waiting to see if the Celtics sign Lester Hudson, who they drafted this year...
