The Celtics are bringing Delonte West back to Boston.

Celtics president Danny Ainge confirmed on Wednesday that the team will re-sign West, who started his career in Boston.

West spent three seasons with the Celtics before being dealt to Seattle in the draft-day trade that paired Ray Allen with Paul Pierce.

He will be ineligible for the first 10 games of the season after being suspended by the league following a guilty plea on weapons charges in the state of Maryland.
