Just days after West was supposedly not a target for a backup guard, Ainge has expressed some interest in bringing back the former Celtic.

Personally, off-court issues aside, I think adding West (again) can only help the C's depleted back court. Celtics fans and staff already know what he is made of, and he has history of playing alongside Pierce, Garnett, and Rajon Rondo. This would indeed be a high risk pickup for obvious reasons.
