Vincent Poirier agrees to two-year contract with Celtics

The Celtics added some bulk to their frontcourt for the second straight day of free agency. The team came to terms with 25-year-old center Vincent Poirier on Tuesday, agreeing to a two-year contract for the veteran's minimum according to a league source.

BSJ Analysis

The 25-year-old Poirier is a mobile 7-footer who provides a far superior defensive presence to Enes Kanter in the frontcourt. The Celtics were rumored to have interest in Poirer, who just finished a standout season with Baskonia during which he led the league in rebounds (8.6 per game). He’s a rim-running big with good mobility for his size. Fouls a lot but he sticks with guards pretty well for his size. No real jump shot to speak of. He will compete with Kanter and Robert Williams for a starting job right out of the gate.
