The Celtics theoretically have two open roster spots
Well, safe to say the Boston Celtics roster has seen some turnover.
Over the course of the last few days, the Celtics have seen Gordon Hayward reportedly sign with the Charlotte Hornets, they’ve traded away Vincent Poirier and Enes Kanter and made Brad Wanamaker an unrestricted free agent. Meanwhile, they added three players via the draft — two of which will join the Celtics right away.
So, here’s a look at where things stand.
Guards
Carsen Edwards
Payton Pritchard
Marcus Smart
Kemba Walker
Tremont Waters
Wings
Jaylen Brown
Javonte Green
Romeo Langford
Aaron Nesmith
Semi Ojeleye
Jayson Tatum
Grant Williams
Bigs
Tacko Fall
Daniel Theis
Robert Williams
Both Waters and Fall are on two-way deals, so the Celtics theoretically have two open roster spots. They reportedly were in pursuit of veteran forward Paul Millsap, but he’s now expected to re-sign with the Denver Nuggets.
Romeo Langford also won’t be ready for the start of training camp, and he may be unavailable for the start of the season, so that too could potentially open a roster spot.
Ojeleye is a candidate to get waived, but the Celtics would have to do that by the end of Saturday or else his contract becomes full guarantee.
In other words, things might continue to change.
