The Boston Celtics signed Ron Harper Jr. to a contract, adding him to the team entering training camp and preseason.

Harper Jr. has three season under his belt, though most of the time was spent in the G-League.

Harper is the son of Ron Harper Sr., an NBA veteran who played alongside Michael Jordan with the Chicago Bulls.

Harper Sr. won three titles with the Bulls and played with the Los Angeles Lakers, securing another pair of titles.

In other news, a team insider predicted the starting rotation for the Celtics, including a surprise addition to the line-up amid Jayson Tatum's injury.

Boston will have an entirely new look and while the team should still compete every night, there is a lack of depth at the front court which will cripple the team's chances.
