Celtics Sign Caleb Grill to a Training Camp Contract
The Boston Celtics have signed guard Caleb Grill to a training camp contract, according to Paul Garcia of The Spot Up Shot. The deal gives Grill another NBA look after he played for Boston's Summer League team, though his likely path runs through the Maine Celtics if he is waived before the regular season. The 26-year-old went undrafted in 2025 out of Missouri, where he won SEC Sixth Man of the Year honors after averaging 13.7 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.7 steals while shooting 39.6 percent from deep. Chicago waived him last September, and he averaged 11.2 points per game for the Windy City Bulls before a March move to Greensboro. Boston did lose shooting volume when Jaylen Brown was dealt to Philadelphia, but Payton Pritchard, Derrick White, Mike Conley, and wing shooter Sam Hauser are all well ahead of Grill for minutes. He is more likely headed for Maine than Boston's fantasy radar.

Devin Carter Signs Exhibit 10 Deal with Celtics
The Boston Celtics have signed guard Devin Carter to an Exhibit 10 contract, according to the Boston Globe. HoopsHype's Michael Scotto reported that Carter will compete for an NBA roster spot or a two-way opening in camp, while Spotrac's Keith Smith noted the deal can become a standard non-guaranteed contract, convert to a two-way, or send him toward a bonus with Maine. The 24-year-old was waived by Atlanta on Friday after arriving from Sacramento in a June salary-dump trade, leaving the Hawks on the hook for his $5.16 million salary. Carter averaged 8.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in 18.4 minutes across 38 games last season. Boston has 14 standard contracts and two two-ways filled, so Carter is battling camp guards and wings such as Milos Uzan and Tucker DeVries. Even if he sticks, Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, and Mike Conley leave him with no clear fantasy path.

Baylor Scheierman Positioned for a Leap in Boston
Boston Celtics guard/forward Baylor Scheierman was identified by John Karalis of the Celtics for Sports Illustrated as the roster's best candidate to make the biggest leap this season. Scheierman averaged 5.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 18.6 minutes across 77 games in 2025-26, but his 20 starts were more useful: 9.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 2.9 assists in 28.3 minutes. Karalis pointed to Scheierman's 49.4 percent mark from the corners, behind only Payton Pritchard on Boston, as his edge over Hugo Gonzalez and Jordan Walsh. Karalis also framed Paul George's projected missed games as part of the opportunity, giving Scheierman a path to spot starts if his shooting carries over.

Celtics Happy With Hugo Gonzalez's Offseason Development
Boston Celtics guard/forward Hugo Gonzalez has drawn praise following a strong Summer League showing. In three Summer League outings, the 20-year-old Spaniard averaged 18.3 points, 8.0 rebounds, 5.7 assists, and 1.7 steals in 34.7 minutes per game. "In the summer, I think he's worked on all facets of his game," Celtics assistant coach Amile Jefferson said of Gonzalez. "That's on and off the court, and that has to do with his body. So I think everyone has seen his improvements." We didn't see much of Gonzalez during his rookie campaign, as he was limited to 14.6 minutes per game in 74 appearances. However, he could be gearing up for a big leap in his second year.

Hugo Gonzalez Fills the Box Score as Celtics Top Kings
Boston Celtics guard Hugo Gonzalez recorded a game-high 24 points on 8-for-18 shooting in Wednesday's 82-76 Summer League win over the Kings, adding 10 rebounds, five assists, and one steal across 33 minutes. The 20-year-old Spaniard led Boston in points, rebounds, and assists while resting just six minutes, connecting on 3-for-9 from deep and 3-for-3 at the line. It's a sharp correction after a 3-for-16 showing in the Vegas opener against Toronto. Boston reportedly declined to include Gonzalez in its trade package for Giannis Antetokounmpo, ESPN's Shams Charania reports, which speaks to how the front office values him. A larger second-year role looks plausible, though his jumper will set the fantasy ceiling.

Tucker DeVries Joins Celtics on Non-Guaranteed Deal
The Boston Celtics have signed guard/forward Tucker DeVries to an Exhibit 10 contract, Spotrac's Keith Smith reports. The deal is non-guaranteed, and DeVries joins fellow undrafted rookie Milos Uzan on terms that typically funnel players to a franchise's G League affiliate. A two-time Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year at Drake, DeVries averaged 13.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.1 steals in 34.2 minutes across 32 games last season at Indiana. He's added 11.0 points on 40.0 percent three-point shooting in two Summer League appearances in Las Vegas. Boston can convert an Exhibit 10 into a two-way deal before the season opens, but there's no fantasy angle here unless that conversion comes.

Jaylen Brown Traded to Philadelphia
According to Shams Charania of ESPN, the Boston Celtics traded guard/forward Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers for forward Paul George, two first-round picks and two second-round picks on Wednesday. The five-time NBA All-Star will join Joel Embiid, VJ Edgecombe and Tyrese Maxey in Philadelphia. He is coming off a career-best season, averaging 28.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 5.1 assists and 1.0 steals in 34.4 minutes per game across 71 regular-season contests. Despite landing on a loaded Sixers roster, Brown should be one of the team's primary offensive options moving forward.

Jaylen Brown Lands on Trade Radar for Six Teams
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown has attracted trade interest from the Trail Blazers, Raptors, Nuggets, Nets, Hornets, and Hawks, according to Michael Scotto. Brown is still under a massive five-year, $285.4 million deal with Boston, so any move would require a serious package. The 29-year-old is coming off a career-best fantasy season, averaging 28.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 5.1 assists while shooting 47.7 percent from the field. A trade to a thinner roster would likely protect his usage, while a move to a more established contender could trim his scoring ceiling. For now, Brown remains a high-volume fantasy anchor until Boston actually makes a move.

Jaylen Brown Sits at the Center of Boston's Giannis Pursuit
Milwaukee is expected to seek clarity on the Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes before or around Tuesday's draft, with Boston emerging as a major threat to Miami, The Athletic's Sam Amick reports. Any Celtics offer for the two-time MVP would likely have to start with Jaylen Brown plus significant draft compensation, potentially including up to three first-round picks. Brown is coming off a career year, averaging 28.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 5.1 assists as Boston's lead option during Jayson Tatum's absence. A move to Milwaukee could lift Brown's usage as a centerpiece, while Giannis would remain an elite fantasy anchor anywhere, even if paired with a healthy Tatum. If Boston whiffs, the Celtics are among the teams eyeing Pelicans wing Trey Murphy III, the breakout name here after career highs of 21.5 points, 5.7 rebounds and 3.8 assists on 37.9 percent from three.
