After playing very well at the Las Vegas Olympic qualifying tournament, Esteban Bastista is close to returning to the NBA. His new team could be the Boston Celtics, which a few weeks ago aquired one of the best players in the NBA in Kevin Garnett.
Batista has a very good chance to become a Celtic, a team that had the second worst record in the NBA during the 2006-2007 season with a 24-58 record, after memphis which had a 22-60 record.
The center from Uruguay has some tempting offers from different parts of the world, like europe were Maccabi Tel Aviv has shown interest and is one of the strongest teams in the euroleague after losing in the finals two years ago.
The main reason for Batista to stay in europe is the amount of minutes he will see if he decides to play in the NBA were minutes will be very hard to come by, otherwise he sees playing in the best league in the world as a priority even if he doesn't get enough playing time.
In his last NBA season Batista averaged 1.5 points and 2.3 rebounds per game in 6.2 minutes a game for the Atlanta Hawks. He only played 13 games.
Gravitating in the paint will be the flaming hot and recent aquisition for the celtics of Garnett who was traded for 7 players who along with Paul Pierce and Ray Allen could be the Leagues highest scoring trio.
The Celtics as a team have won 16 NBa titles the most by any team in the history of the sport. But they haven't won a title since 1986 when Larry Bird was their Star player.
