The Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns have registered interest in Houston Rockets wing Jae'Sean Tate. Both Boston and Phoenix have been looking for rotation upgrades but are limited in what they can offer via trade.
Tate makes $6.5 million this season, with a $7.1 million team option for 2024-25. That reasonable salary for this season is how Boston and Phoenix could deal for Tate.
The Celtics could combine the contracts of minimum-salary players to match Tate's $6.5 million. The Suns could offer a similar deal or could offer Nassir Little as the matching salary in a trade.
