Celtics 2025-26, Off-Season/Training Camp Thread

[Parliament10]

Didn't the St John's kid sign an Exhibit 10 yesterday?

Our Summer League guy?
Did he even play?

Time to Update, if he did sign.

Yeah, Aaron Scott is exhibit 10:



1 spot left..and still 2 months left to fill that 1 spot..

Thanks Hal, and darrendaye, for Updating.
I think that we'll see more spots open up. Not so sure about some of these players remaining on the Team.

As for Exhibit 10's.:
Teams can have up to 6 x Exhibit-10's, at a time.
They can go over that limit, if they Waive Ex-10's and then bring more in.

Ex-10's can be Converted to Two-Ways, by the Beginning of the Regular Season.
They used to have to become Two-Ways first, and then be further Converted to a Regular NBA Contract.
(I'm not sure if they can go straight to an NBA Contract, now?)

Exhibit 10's, who become Affiliates with a Team's G League counterpart earn $85K, after 60 Days with the Team.

Exhibit 10's can get converted right to an NBA contract. Happened with Vonleh, Lamar Stevens, Justin Jackson, etc.

Many Exhibit 10 guys have been in the league too long to be eligible for a 2-way contract.

Joe is going to have Neemias Queta tackle everyone that gets in the lane.

Do you have any links to that info?

Repost, from another Thread:

This whole Offseason/Preseason Roster Thingamajig is out of whack.
For one thing, Two-Ways shouldn't count against the Roster limit. Same as it doesn't in some other Sports.

The NBA Rules are too constraining.
Preseason Roster Limits in other Pro Sports, compared to their Regular Season Limits, are as follows.:

Sport | Offs'n | Regular
NFL ---- 90 ---- 53
MLB --- 40 ---- 25
NHL --- 50 ---- 23
MLS --- 30 ---- 20
NBA --- 21 ---- 18


Again, we should have 25 Players in Camp.

Nobody liked my argument, huh?
We need to seriously work more on Developing the G League.

Hopefully, Fred VanVleet being elected the new President of the NBPA will make a difference.
As he started out being assigned and playing in the G League, for Raptors 905.

I'm more emphatic about having them go to four 2-way contracts. This way you can work on full 5 player units if you send your draft pick down there.

Smitty had said, awhile back, that Teams wanted to go to 5 x Two-Ways per Team, once they all got a G League squad.
I'd like to see that sooner rather than later.

Two of three incoming Celtics rookies have officially signed with the team
By Noa Dalzell Jul 30, 2025, 4:02pm EDT

https://www.celticsblog.com/2025/7/30/24477689/max-shulga-boston-celtics-draft-two-way-contract

Hugo Gonzalez, who was selected with the 28th overall pick last month, signed a four-year, $14.3 million contract with the Celtics earlier this month, per Spotrac.

Amari Williams, the Kentucky center who was drafted with the 46th overall pick, remains unsigned. He averaged 6.4 points, 5 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in four Summer League games.

As a two-way player for the Celtics, Max Shulga is likely to spend most of the year in Maine, where he’ll play under Phil Pressey and alongside fellow Summer League guard Hayden Gray, among others. He can appear in up to 50 games for the Celtics, and will earn $636,435 for his rookie season.

Interesting that Amari Williams hasn't signed yet.
Think that he's holding for a better Contract?

These things just sometimes take time.

Last season we didn't sign Watson to his 2-way contract until August 2.

That's an old video. I've seen that years ago or something like that. Pritchard look like he is 18 in that video.

These are the videos I watched the day he was drafted or the next day. It’s old like his dancing one. Still a good watch.

Should be a holiday. Who else remembers where they were when the news broke like it was the moon landing or 9/11?

Or maybe the subtle, bump and run.

Tatum...

“He was moving really well,” said the scout in a phone conversation with Heavy Sports later that day. “There might have been a slight limp or something, but the surprising thing to me is that he didn’t have a boot for any of it."

“I’m no doctor, but I’ve seen guys coming back from Achilles’ tears, and he looked way ahead. I was kind of shocked to see how well he was moving. I have no idea for what any of this means for when he can come back. I’m sure him and the Celtics’ medical people have their program set up, and they’ll make sure that he’s where he needs to be when he does get back. But he looks great right now. Of course, he didn’t do any running or even jogging, but he was in great shape and he had no trouble doing his part at the camp.”

Like I said, JT will be running in December.

March is when JT will most likely make his return.

JT's pissed.

I heard he said he's not going out like that, referring to being in agony.

I hope JT learned his lesson and will lessen the bad shots he takes.

A more efficient JT will be key to getting that 2nd chip in the era of the Jays.

I don’t get it he’s going to learn his lesson that he got hurt after playing one million high intensity minutes by taking more shots that demand more intense exertion?

[Riverwalk2021]

If Tatum is indeed back later in the season which is possible because he's clearly one of the best conditioned players in the NBA and lives for BBALL, Brad better upgrade this WNBA-level front court.
