The Boston Celtics have very little left to do in order to prepare for the NBA’s 2024 Playoffs. With the best record in the entire NBA and nearly a double-digit lead on the Cleveland Cavaliers for the Eastern Conference’s top spot, the only thing left for Boston to do is tighten up its rotations for the coming postseason.

And in order to do that, the front office will need to make a decision about which players will be on the regular roster. That means filling the team’s last vacant roster spot, which could see Boston elevate a two way player, but also signing for a free agent instead.

Which options are out there who could help the Celtics in a title push?

The hosts of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” and “Talkin’ Cs” podcasts linked up to talk it over. Check it out in the clip above!

The Boston Celtics may have swung two deals ahead of the 2024 NBA trade deadline, but that doesn’t mean the team is done making moves. At the time of this writing, the club still has an open 15th roster spot. The free agent pool for Boston to select from has some intriguing names, and more players are expected to be bought out of their current contracts in the next few days.

There are some limitations. Because Boston is above the first apron of the salary cap in the new CBA, the Celtics cannot sign a player who made more than the non-taxpayer midlevel exception on their original contract prior to a buyout. That means Boston can only add players who made $12.4 million or less in annual salary.

With that caveat in place, let’s take a look at some of the most intriguing names the Celtics could target.
