Red Claws Draft Results-Danny Ainge Makes a Cameo

The Maine Red Claws, who earlier in the day announced the first player in team history, Billy Thomas from Kansas, took part in the D-League's draft, selecting 8 players from the available pool. Paul Harris, formerly of Syracuse was the first round selection (8th overall) of the team. The Red claws seemed to be looking for athletic shooters, as the tallest player they drafted was 6'8. Their Mr Irrelevant was Maine native Matt Clement (no, not the pitcher), who was most recently playing in Ireland. He played at Maine Maritime Academy, and in 2008 put his basketball career on hold for a bit when when he donated half of his liver to his ailing father. Danny Ainge was also on-site, and the audio from his interview is now posted for your listening pleasure, as he talks about the draft and the Celtics.

Be respectful and keep it clean. Thanks.

Thanks for the news on the Red Claws, with a little luck perhaps I can catch a game when I’m back home for Christmas!

PAUL HARRIS!

Great opportunity for him to actually learn how to use his brain playing basketball. The guy was so dumb last year with his decision making abilities. He should be able to polish his game up enough to get an NBA look in the future.
