NBA transaction window set so Celts, other teams can make roster moves

The Boston Celtics and rest of the NBA will be able to adjust their roster and add eligible free agents between June 23rd and 30th.

The Athletic’s Shams Charania reports the NBA has set dates for its transaction window that will allow teams to make adjustments to their rosters ahead of the resumption of the 2019-20 season at Disney’s NBA Campus in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.

Those dates will span between June 23rd at noon ET to 11:59 ET June 30, and the period will allow teams to add players to their rosters (if the team has or opens roster slots) via end-of-season and two way contracts, off waivers, or by converting two way contracts to regular ones during this week.

Any rest-of-season deal will be for a minimum of $183,115 with at least two years of service according to Charania.

While there is no sign Boston plans to make such moves, they could in theory cut players to make room for elevating G League Rookie of the Year Tremont Waters or fan favorite center Tacko Fall up from a two way contract.

The Celtics could also sign an impact free agent should one show interest in joining the team; players who have had a summer, two way or regular contract with an NBA team or a G League affiliate in the last two seasons are eligible for such deals.
