The #celtics and former Missouri and Waltham High guard Phil Pressey have agreed to a multiyear contract, according to an NBA source

The plot (and the roster) thickens.
The Celtics indicated during the summer session that Pressey would be invited to camp and the two sides have been working on a deal the past two weeks. Celtics coach Brad Stevens expressed his admiration for Pressey last week in Orlando. “I like Phil, I like Phil,” Stevens said. "There are some things that Phil can certainly get better at. He’ll work hard to do it. Right when I got the job, I sent him a text message that night and he called me about a minute after I sent the text and I think he really wants to be good. He’s very dynamic with the ball and I think if he continues to do that and make shots, he’s going to be in good shape.”
