Former Celtics forward Leon Powe did get a late offer from the Boston Celtics, according to an interview Powe did with HoopsDaily.com.
Powe, who signed the Cleveland Cavaliers this past week, said Boston made an offer after he had give his word to Cleveland that he'd sign with the Cavaliers.
Among the things Powe, who claims to have no hard feelings, shared was that Celtics general manager Danny Ainge suggested Powe look for a younger team.
"He thought I should try to find a younger team," Powe told HoopsDaily.com. "You know there was a little bit of lack of confidence in my ability to come back, and they knew I wouldn't be on the court until February, and you they're trying to win a championship, you know. So I told my family once Cleveland made their offer, and that was that."
