PHIL PRESSEY TRADED 

FOR SIXTH GRADE 

BASKETBALL PLAYER

In an attempt to make his team even younger and to save cap space, Danny Ainge the general manager of the Boston Celtics, traded second year player Phil Pressey to the Cambridge Public Schools for sixth grade forward Jimmy Butts. 

After trading Rajon Rondo and Jeff Green to different NBA teams, Danny Ainge said, "It will be a few years before we see Jimmy Butts in an NBA game but at least Phil will get more playing time on the sixth grade travel team. I saw Jimmy Butts playing in a weekend tournament and liked how he passed the ball." 

When asked about why he traded Phil Pressey, Ainge said, "He was coot."
