BOSTON -- Boston Celtics coach Brad Stevens wouldn't take the bait when asked if his team might have interest in freshly bought-out Joe Johnson for its open roster spot, but he reaffirmed that versatility and shooting top his wish list for the attributes of any player the team elects to bring in.
The Celtics currently have one open roster spot after waiving David Lee last Friday. Any player that's on the open market before March 1 is playoff-eligible. The Nets waived Johnson on Thursday following a buyout agreement and the 34-year-old wing will clear waivers on Saturday.
