The Boston Celtics are nearing what their 2021-22 NBA regular season roster will look like after The Athletic’s Jared Weiss reports that the Celtics are waiving guards Theo Pinson, Garrison Mathews, and Chris Clemons.
Per Weiss, Mathews — whose cutting is something of a surprise given the team’s need for shooting and his two way eligibility — will become a free agent, while Pinson and Clemons will join the (Portland) Maine Celtics, Boston’s developmental affiliate in the G League, as affiliate players. Luke Kornet, Ryan Arcidiacono, and Juwan Morgan will join them in that role with the Maine Celtics according to The Athletic NBA insider.
Jabari Parker and Bruno Fernando will reportedly remain with the team for the time being.
