PORTLAND — Boston Celtics’ forward Glen Davis will be in Portland to help break ground for two basketball courts in Portland.

The new full-size courts in the East Bayside section will cost an estimated $80,000 that’ll be covered by federal funds. They are expected to be completed late this fall.

Davis will be joined by Portland Mayor Nicholas Mavodones, Acting Police Chief Michael Sauschuck and others.

Mavodones says the new courts will have a positive impact on the community. They’ll replace smaller, older courts.
