For the second straight year, the NBA Draft will take up two days on the calendar, with the first round on June 25 and Round 2 on June 26. The Celtics won't pick until No. 28 in the first round, but will pick early in the season round with the 32nd overall pick.
While Kristaps Porzingis is available in trade talks, the Celtics could look to go a different direction for now.
The phrase "Role players play better at home" often gets thrown around, but is it true? Here's what the numbers say this NBA playoffs.
Porzingis is set to make $30.7 million in 2025-26 and is set to hit unrestricted free agency after next season. The 29-year-old averaged 19.5 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 42 games in 2024-25 and helped the Celtics go 61-21 and earn the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference.
One crazy trade idea has the Celtics trading Porzingis to the Portland Trail Blazers for old friend Robert Williams III. Boston traded Williams III away in order to acquire Jrue Holiday from Portland.
