Celtics Recall Tremont Waters Ahead Of Monday’s Contest Vs. Kings
Two of the Boston Celtics’ top players may be on the injury report, but the team still has plenty of talent to work with in the interim.
Enter Tremont Waters.
The Celtics have recalled Waters from the Maine Red Claws ahead of Monday’s contest at TD Garden against the Sacramento Kings. Waters practiced with the team Sunday afternoon, per NBC Sports Boston’s A. Sherrod Blakely.

Tremont Waters practiced with the #Celtics today, a precursor to him most likely being called up from the @maineredclaws to provide added depth following Kemba Walker's neck strain injury.

The Celtics are in need of some extra depth with both Kemba Walker (neck sprain) and Gordon Hayward (left hand fracture) on the sideline due to injury. And considering Waters’ recent success in Maine, he’s a fitting candidate for the job.
Tip-off between the Celtics and the Kings is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET.
