BOSTON -- Rather than have him sitting on the bench and not getting any playing time, the Celtics announced today that they decided to assign forward Bill Walker to the Maine Red Claws where he will get more playing time and have more of an opportunity to work on his game.

Walker is the team's first assignment to the NBA Development League this season.

Walker, a 6'6" forward, has appeared in one game for the Celtics this season and has logged two minutes of playing time. The Kansas State product has posted career averages of 2.9 points and 1.0 rebound in 7.2 minutes per game over 30 games with the Celtics.

In 15 games with the D-League's Utah Flash last season, Walker averaged 18.9 points and 5.3 rebounds in 30.5 minutes per game.
