Is Darko finally free?

In potentially “hot off the press” Celtics news, Danny and co. are apparently bringing in Darko Milicic, the journeyman Serbian center and hair icon, for a one year contract at the veteran minimum.

As a short-term, inexpensive flyer, the Celtics have nothing to lose by adding a 27-year-old 7’0” with some serviceable big man skills.  Always burdened with his draft selection misstep between LeBron and Melo in the 2003 NBA draft (and before DWade and Chris Bosh), Darko never lived up to his Joe Dumars/Chad Ford pushed potential, but after years on the bench of successful teams and on the floor of unsuccessful teams, a Celtics renaissance behind master big mentor KG may be a potentiality.
