Devin Carter Diagnosed With Mono After Signing Two-Way Deal With Celtics

The Boston Celtics converted Devin Carter to their final two-way contract, but the guard has been diagnosed with mononucleosis and could miss a few more weeks. Carter impressed in his preseason debut, recording 17 points on 5-of-9 shooting, five rebounds, three assists, and two steals in 25 minutes against Cleveland. Head coach Joe Mazzulla praised Carter's ceiling and defensive impact, as Boston plans to develop the former lottery pick via their G League affiliate in Maine once healthy.
