The Celtics just trimmed down their roster's cap hit to avoid the dreaded second apron impacts mandated by the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) by trading away vets Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis, and let key backup big man Luke Kornet walk in free agency.
The Celtics were linked as a possible suitor for Damian Lillard shortly after the Bucks bought him out of his contract.
If the Celtics are going to have a chance to sign Lillard, they will have to sign him to at least a two-year deal since he has a torn Achilles. They will also need to make some other moves to make it work. If Boston is going to be a viable team to bring Lillard in, they will need to clear some room to offer him the mid-level exception.
