Six Celtics are on extensions signed with Boston after they arrived; offers for Brown, Jrue Vacation and Payton Pritchard have every signed via 2028. Expect that trend to continue. In addition to Tatum, I’m hearing it’s very likely that Sam Hauser and Derrick White will join them. Hauser has one yr left for the minimal, on a staff choice, and will likely be extension-eligible this summer time; he’s about to get costlier, however Boston sees him as a keeper. One potential cap shenanigan can be to say no Hauser’s staff choice for 2024-25 and re-sign him for decrease cash and extra years than in an extension that began in 2025-26. Doing so would enhance the Celtics’ tax penalty in 2024-25 however reduce the affect of the repeater penalty and handle the second apron within the out years.

In the meantime, White will be eligible for an extension for up to four years and $127 million this summer, including incentives; league sources say the Celtics are strongly interested in a deal with him and would likely need to offer every cent of that to get it done. (White’s extension quantity has been reported as a distinct quantity in some locations, as a result of the incentives in his deal weren’t thought of seemingly earlier than this season. However primarily based on his 2023-24 season, they’re all seemingly.) -via New York Times / June 20, 2024

I really feel like he hasn’t proven that he can actually be elite at a number of issues, however I believe he may be elite at a number of issues. I evaluate him to the Jrue Holidays, the Derrick Whites—guys which are glue guys that may go do every part on the ground and provide help to. That’s form of how I see him.” -via YouTube / June 19, 2024

And he did fairly effectively as a coach however Brad Stevens resisting all these calls, years and years and years of outsider screaming, you gotta break these two up, they’re by no means going to do it, as a substitute over the previous few years, Stevens went out and he traded for Al Horford. Then he traded for Derrick white. Then he traded for Kristaps Porzingis and had to surrender Marcus sensible within the course of, which was not the most well-liked transfer in Boston. After which he went out and received Vacation. -via Apple Podcasts / June 19, 2024
