Summary
The Boston Celtics are strategically planning their summer moves, focusing on enhancing their supporting cast without exceeding the salary cap. With Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatums massive deals, they have about $170 million committed for the 2026-27 season, leaving them under the tax line. Theyre skipping a reunion with Nikola Vucevic and focusing on team options for bench players. The Celtics have flexibility to make trades and use the mid-level exception for a perimeter upgrade, aiming to add two impact players while staying under the tax. This approach keeps them competitive and avoids apron restrictions for bigger moves next summer. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
