Himmelsbach:

Players on nonguaranteed contracts will have their deals fully guaranteed if they remain on rosters past Jan. 7. This does not apply to anyone on the Celtics’ current roster, but it’s worth keeping an eye on that date, anyway, because they still have an empty roster spot and are expected to monitor the activity of teams with players on nonguaranteed deals, according to a league source.

Also, we can trade Jaden Springer for an ungauranteed player and then cut him before the guarantee date for the tax savings plus opening a roster spot. Taj Gibson or somebody making $3 million but only $1 guaranteed.

Then promote a guy like Drew Peterson or bring back Lonnie Walker to complete the 14-man roster.

I'd like to see both Walker and Peterson come up to the Boston club.
