Sam Hauser Possibly on the Move?
Sam Hauser is a player who could be on the move this offseason, according to Sports Illustrated's Chris Mannix. The direction of the franchise is at a crossroads, with superstar forward Jayson Tatum (Achilles) not expected to suit up next season. As a result, the Celtics may look to shed some salary in an attempt to get out of the dreaded second apron while maintaining roster flexibility for Tatum's return. The 27-year-old, who agreed to a four-year, $45 million contract extension in July of 2024, has been a reliable option from off the bench while also getting some work with the starters along the way. He's appeared in 256 regular-season games for the Celtics since entering the league, averaging a respectable 7.4 points and an impressive 42.0% shooting from behind the arc. Hauser is someone to watch this offseason, especially if he gets more minutes on a new team. His departure could also open the door Baylor Scheierman to earn a routine spot in the Celtics' rotation come the 2025-26 campaign.
