The Boston Celtics' courting of Rasheed Wallace culminated with a contract offer, according to the Boston Globe, believed to be for two years at the mid-level exception, approximately $5.8 million.Wallace, formerly of the Detroit Pistons, has his share of suitors and is in no hurry to make a decision. Orlando and San Antonio have expressed interest in Wallace, who re-signed a five-year, $57 million deal with Detroit in July 2004. The Pistons decided to allow Wallace to walk and agreed to deals with Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva. Free agents aren't allowed to officially sign until July 8.
Wallace's production has waned over the past three seasons, as he has averaged just over 12 points this past season after logging 15.1 in 2005-06.
The Celtics intensified their pursuit of Wallace earlier this week, sending Ray Allen, Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett along with GM Danny Ainge and managing partner Wyc Grousbeck to Detroit to meet with the mercurial forward. Wallace would have to play a complementary role for the Celtics, but likely would start along with the Big Three and Rajon Rondo.
Wallace turns 35 in September and averaged 12 points and 7.4 rebounds in 32 minutes this past season.
