Celtics Finalizing Deal With Brad Wanamaker 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Mon Jun 25, 2018 8:21 pm

The Boston Celtics are finalizing a deal to sign Brad Wanamaker.


Wanamaker was voted second-team all-EuroLeague at guard this season.


Wanamaker went undrafted out of Pitt in 2011.


The Celtics head into the offseason unsure about the status of Marcus Smart as he enters restricted free agent.

Heard lots of good stuff about him from the Euroleague fans.
Smart is likely leaving. I hope we don't give him something stupid like 15 mil per year...

You won't, my guess is it'll be half that at most. Teodosic only fetched a 2/12, as a comparison.

Nope. Just a Larkin replacement.

This has nothing to do with Smart. Just filling in the back end of the roster.

Teodosic is older and can't defend. Meanwhile, Smart hype is real after Boston's PO. I'm sure someone will give him 15 per.
