The team had until January 10th to waive him without it affecting their cap since he was non-guaranteed until then. Doing this now indicates they are likely signing a FA. Is that Bassey? Is it...Ben Simmons?

I think a waiver before Jan 10 still would leave us on the hook for a prorated portion of his salary.

It would, but waiving him before January 10 would still get the Celtics under the second apron.

But they presumably know they are not keeping him regardless, and giving him a chance to find somewhere else to land.  But Tatum hurt, Smart to the Lakers, and Davison gone: I am going to have a very sad 9 year-old when she hears about this, even thought she knew Davison probably wasn?t going to make the team this year.

We were rumored favorites to get DL also. 

But I?m just glad to have another Celtics rumor to occupy some head space.

Can?t see the Celtics signing someone else unless they shed more salary.

Mmm ... I was happy for him at first but ... it doesn't look like a good situation for him.

They have VanVleet as the starting PG. They have Reed Sheppard and Aaron Holiday as backup PGs. There is going to be no opportunity for JD Davison there. 4th string. Never play. Year in the G-League, Again.

I think JD being on any team is a good situation for him.

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.

Apparently it's a two-way.

NBA rules are stupid. He can be a 2-way for Houston but not Boston. Dumb.
