Free-agent guard Marquis Daniels(notes) has committed to sign with the Boston Celtics, a league source said Friday.

Daniels will receive the Celtics’ $1.9 million biannual salary-cap exception if the Indiana Pacers aren’t interested in a sign-and-trade deal. The 6-foot-6 Daniels averaged 13.6 points and 4.6 rebounds in 54 games with Indiana last season, his third with the team. Daniels previously played three seasons with the Mavericks.

Daniels, 28, will help improve the Celtics’ perimeter depth. Boston signed free-agent forward Rasheed Wallace(notes) last week and remains interested in keeping forward Glen Davis(notes).

The rich get richer. Can't wait to see the chess game between Orlando Cleveland and Boston play out on the court. If KG is healthy signing Wallace and Daniels just pushed them back out in front IMO.

That is a steal for Daniels. He played very well when he got the minutes. I was hoping he would slip through the cracks and end up being signed by the Knicks.

actually, either he really wanted to go to the Celts, or I can't believe he couldn't get a larger contract.

Daniels was the Pacers point guard for a stretch due to injury...Daniels is a good player off the bench for them...they needed the backcourt help and POW! they sign Daniels for way cheap...

Celtics look ready to compete again

He's had an up and down career. He's looked great at times and awful at others--for long stretches. For a 1 yr, $1.9 mil contract, signing him is a no-brainer though.
