starters:
White, Holiday, Brown, Tatum, Porzingis
(all signed for at least 4 years including this one, except Porzingis, who has 2 years left and should be extended next summer)
Main rotation players:
Pritchard, Hauser, Horford (Horford will start until Porzingis is back)
Pritchard is signed for 4 more years, hopefully Hauser will get an extension done after July 9th, I feel Horford will have a 10 mil a year contract waiting for him as long as he wants to play)
Stay ready group:
Springer (1 year plus qualifying offer year), Walsh (3 years left on rookie contract), Kornet (this year only), Queta (this year and next), Scheierman (starting rookie contract). That's 13 players under contract. We still need a player of size and strength to fill the backup PF spot not names Horford. At least 1 more will need to be signed, possibly Tillman, or another point guard, or one of the guys looking at the 2-way deals.
Possible 2-way players:
Peterson (6'9/205 24 years old), Watson (6'8/230 23 years old), Enaruna (6'8/230 23 years old)
I doubt all of these guys of similar size will be on 2-ways contracts. Brad may need to get someone to play point guard on a 2-way for continuity.
Did Brissett and Svi sign somewhere?
Not yet
I would think Svi will either sign with a different team or go sign with a team overseas (there were rumors that he was close to signing with a EuroLeague team last year before he signed with BOS).
Brissett is looking for a team that can offer more playing time. I'm thinking that team could be Milwaukee, maybe Washington, Charlotte or Utah. Or perhaps he will resign with BOS if he can't find another team that can offer more playing time/more $/longer contract length..
So Where are we now? We should probably put parentheses around Hauser?
We can go with 15 players now, and make a 2-for-1 Trade later on.
I'm sure that we want to be down to 14 players, by the Trade Deadline?

We can go to 6 x Exhibit 10's at a time. (We can do more, but we'd have to Waive some, and replace them.)
And then, up to 4 Waived Players, can be Affiliates on the Maine Celtics.
If (hopefully) we Sign Tillman and Hauser, then we can dangle at least 1 open NBA Roster spot.
In addition to (now) 2 x Two-Ways.
Celtics Roster, Proposed, 2024-25:Starters: Holiday - White - Brown - Tatum - Porzingis/Horford
Rotation: Pritchard - Hauser - Walsh - Tillman? - Horford/Kornet
Reserves: XXXX - Springer - Scheierman - XXXX - Queta
Two-Ways: Peterson? - Watson - Undrafted
Exhibt 10: XXXX - Enaruna
UFA = Tillman
UFA = Brissett
UFA = Mykhailiuk
Davison = 3rd-yr Two-Way?
Peterson = 2nd-yr Two-Way?
