According Jay King of The Athletic, the Boston Celtics will work out guard Marcus Georges-Hunt on Tuesday in Boston. The 6-5 guard participated in the team’s 2016 training camp before spending the season with the Maine Red Claws. This news comes following the arrest of Jabari Bird this weekend for an alleged domestic violence incident.

Georges-Hunt appeared in 42 games last season for the Minnesota Timberwolves, averaging 1.4 points per game, while 43.8% from the field. Georges-Hunt has been productive during his time in the G-League, posting a line of 16.2 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game in 46 total contests. The Georgia Tech product averaged 15.8 points for the Red Claws during the 2016-17 season.
