What does this mean relative to the Boston Celtics? The Red Claws are the D-league affiliate of the C's, do they now own the rights to X or is this just filler for the rest of their roster?

The way the D-League and NBA rosters work, while that is Boston's affiliate, they don't own Munford's draft rights, so anyone can sign him from the NBADL to the NBA. They do have some weird quirks, like being limited to 12 rosters moves per team per year unless a player is signed by the NBA or a European league. They have a FAQ here: http://www.nba.com/dleague/santacruz/dleague_faqs.html

Bill Koch:
The Maine Red Claws traded the rights to former #URI guard Xavier Munford to the Bakersfield Jam -- affiliate of the Phoenix Suns.

Bakersfield ... yeehaw. I don't see X as a prospect. Nice player at URI. He might surprise me.
