West has played in just eight game this season, averaging 6.6 points-per-game.
The Celtics will welcome West back as a contributor off the bench. With all the new additions in the past month, it will be nice to see some stability in the rotation. West can play with the starters, spelling point guard Rajon Rondo, or play at shooting guard with the second unit.
