We really need to get a Wing in the buyout market. we literally have no one on the bench that can play SF.

Agree, this is what I think we need most.
Denzel Valentine is here and would be a low cost investment.

Anyone know what happened to Valentine in Maine? He only played in a few games and did well each time. He’s been DNP the last two games.
Just a guess, but Celtics are going to sign him post ASG and are having him sat to avoid injury until the signing?!?!

Players I’d like the C’s to add that are currently available. They desperately need more shooting, a backup wing and could use some more size.


Abdel Nadar: He was really solid last season and shot the 3 ball over 40%. Decent size too at 6’5”/215lbs. I remember him being pretty good defensively and he’s Still young at 28.

James Ennis: career 36% shooter from deep. Good size for a wing at 6’6” 215lbs. 31 years old.

Quin Cook: career 3pt% of 40.6%. His Worst season he shot 35.7% from deep...29 years old.

Brad Wanamaker: He played well in his two seasons in Boston. First year (36 games)his shooting percentages were FG:47% 3PT:41% FT:85%. Following year (71 games) FG:45% 3PT:36% FT:92%. He has decent size at 6’3”/210Lbs and isn’t too old at 32.

Willie Cauley-Stein or Moses Brown. Team needs some size and a backup C. Currently the C’s don’t have any players over 6’9”.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

The Boston Celtics are planning to sign forwards Malik Fitts and Kelan Martin to 10-day contracts, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Fitts spent time with Jazz this season; Martin played in 27 games for Pacers

Never heard of either of these young men.  I wonder what got the attention of Brad to give them 10-day contracts.

Just buys them time to see who gets waived on the buyout market.  I doubt either will be on the roster in 11 days.

Fitts has a negative career PER.  Impressive.

Nothing against Luke (except his lack of talent), but I would have rather had WCS or Moses Brown.

He doesn’t do anything well. Thought maybe he was shooting OK in the g-league, nope. 31% from 3pt. I have no idea what Brad sees in him.
