The Boston Globe blog is reporting that Sam Cassell has agreed to buyout terms with the Clippers and expects to sign with Boston once he clears waivers.

Reportedly, Cassell has no problem backing up Rajon Rondo and the C’s have said that they are looking for a veteran point guard. It seems like it would be a good fit, though it’s not clear just how much gas the 38 year-old Cassell has left in the tank. For the season, he’s averaging 12.8 points and 4.7 assists, so anchoring the Celtics’ second unit isn’t out of the question.
