On the Boston Celtics signing Tristan Enaruna to an Exhibit-10 deal

A 6-foot-8 swingman who started his career at Kansas and Iowa State before transferring in search of a larger role, Enaruna does a little of everything on both ends of the court.

The Boston Celtics have reportedly decided to sign former Cleveland State wing Tristan Enaruna to an Exhibit-10 deal. This will put the Dutch forward on a track to join the Maine Celtics at the G League level, barring an amazing performance with the Summer Celtics at the NBA’s 2024 Las Vegas Summer League later next month.

A 6-foot-8 swingman who started his career at Kansas and Iowa State before transferring in search of a larger role, Enaruna does a little of everything on both ends of the court, but needs to work on his jump shot to find success at the NBA level.

The hosts of the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast, Jack Simone and Sam LaFrance, took a closer look at his game on a recent episode. Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what they had to say about it!

Celtics reportedly sign Cleveland State forward Tristan Enaruna to Exhibit-10 deal

Enaruna put up 19.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.2 steals, and nearly a block per game in his final season with Cleveland State.

The Boston Celtics are reportedly filling out their 2024 Las Vegas Summer League roster with an eye towards perhaps landing a two way spot with the parent club or perhaps a spot with the Maine Celtics.

According to Draft Express Dot Com’s Jon Chepkovich, “Cleveland State’s Tristan Enaruna has agreed to an Exhibit-10 deal with the Boston Celtics.” An intriguing talent that would not have turned heads had Boston taken him at No. 54, Chepkovich adds that the “Dutch forward boasts an NBA-caliber physical/athletic profile at (6-foot-8 and one-quarter inch with a 7-foot-1) wing span and a (38-inch max vertical leap)”.

Enaruna put up 19.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.2 steals, and nearly a block per game in his final season at the NCAA level with Cleveland State, shooting 32.2% from beyond the arc, 49.8% overall, and 72.1% from the free throw line.

Cleveland State’s Tristian Enaruna to have predraft workout with Thunder

Cleveland State’s Tristian Enaruna to have predraft workout with Thunder.

The calendar has flipped to June, which means NBA teams are intensifying their predraft process and hosting players for workouts and visits. The 2024 NBA draft will take place from June 26-27.

The Oklahoma City Thunder enter this year’s class with a sole draft pick of the No. 12 selection. OKC was gifted the free lottery pick via the Houston Rockets.

This means the Thunder will host several meetings with draft prospects in the coming weeks. Cleveland State’s Tristan Enaruna revealed he has a predraft workout scheduled with the Thunder.

The 22-year-old wrapped up a five-season college career last season. He spent his first two seasons at Kansas before transferring to Iowa State for the 2021-22 campaign. He spent the last two years at Cleveland State.

In 35 games last season, Enaruna averaged 19.6 points on 49.8% shooting, 6.5 rebounds and 2.7 assists. He shot 32.2% from 3 on 2.5 attempts. The forward is listed as 6-foot-8, 220 pounds.

Enaruna will likely be an option for the Thunder in undrafted free agency. If OKC likes him enough, it can easily buy back into the late second round to select him.

A full list of 2024 NBA draft prospects that have worked out or visited the Thunder in the predraft process can be viewed here.
