Could Amile Jefferson be this year's Javonte Green? Well he won't have summer league or many preseason games to show his stuff, but the 27 year old big man does have a solid reference in teammate Jayson Tatum. Jefferson was a 5th year Senior for Duke during Tatum's one-and-done year in Durham, NC. And Tatum was pushing for some team to sign Amile just five days ago.
Sign him!! https://t.co/8hSaPfxilU

Turns out that team is Tatum's Boston Celtics.
The Celtics have signed former Duke big man Amile Jefferson to an exhibit 10 deal, per source.
