Tayshaun Prince likely won't ever wear a #celtics uniform, two sides are working on buyout and making progress.

Washburn

Nate, and prince to get buyouts

@MikeAScotto

Sources: Boston Celtics have discussed buying out Marcus Thornton, Jameer Nelson and Tayshaun Prince. No definitive decision has been made.

This was yesterday i believe.

Wonder where Prince and Thornton end up if they get bought out (Prince is definitely gone but Thorntons not as probable). I see the Clippers getting Prince along with Nate. As for Thornton. I see Portland taking a flyer on him.

Seems pretty unlikely due to Thornton's large contract and salary cap rules.

No trade partners. We already own them all.

Thornton buyout, Prince buyout, Nelson trade.

Somehow Pressey makes it through! That guy is the most resilient
