2026-27 Celtics Off Season Discussion

[Celtics2021]

Looking at the cap numbers I still think this next season will be pretty much the roster at hand and maybe the gear up toward 2027.

We will have access to the full MLE, something which only 2-3 teams can exceed.  So we should be able to make a competitive offer to a quality free agent.  Most players who sign this year will not go for more than the MLE.  That is assuming we do not make a trade, which we have the flexibility to make with the Simons TPE.  I do not expect next year?s team to look remarkably different, but adding one starter-quality player and having a healthier Tatum could make a big difference.

I would like to see an upgrade at center and another starter signed. White, Brown and Tatum. FA Center, FA wing.

Bench of PP. Queta, Sam, Hugo, Baylor , 1st round pick and Garza. Maybe Harper gets some run.

Walsh and Williams can go.
