    The Boston Celtics and free agent guard Lonnie Walker IV agreed on a one-year contract, ESPN reported on Wednesday.

    Walker, 25, will receive an Exhibit 10 training camp contract, per The Athletic. If Walker is waived after camp and plays for the team's G League affiliate in Maine, he would be eligible for a bonus worth up to $77,500.

    Walker will be competing for the defending NBA champion Celtics' final roster spot.

    In 58 games last season with the Brooklyn Nets, Walker averaged 9.7 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 17.4 minutes per game.

    Selected in the first round (No. 18 overall) in the 2018 draft by the San Antonio Spurs, the six-year veteran has averaged 9.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 322 games (88 starts) with the Spurs (2018-22), Los Angeles Lakers (2022-23) and Nets.
