Banton was on the Celtics at the start of the 2023-24 season, the same year they won the title. He played 24 games with the team, averaging 7.1 minutes, but was later traded to the Trail Blazers at the deadline that season. Banton most recently played with the Clippers this season, but he got minutes in only two games.

Today in Boston Celtics history, the team traded for Isaiah Thomas.
