The Boston Celtics are navigating a quiet offseason following significant trades involving Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis, with a focus on maneuvering under the NBA's second tax apron. While they have added players like Luka Garza and Josh Minott, the team is rumored to explore further trades to maintain financial flexibility. Key players such as Anfernee Simons, Georges Niang, Sam Hauser, Derrick White, and Jaylen Brown are being considered for potential trades to help the Celtics get under the salary cap constraints.

Despite speculation, reports suggest that Boston is unlikely to part ways with White or Brown, as their contributions are seen as crucial in the upcoming season. The Celtics' strategy could involve rerouting new acquisitions or expanding recent trades to achieve the necessary financial adjustments. The team remains slightly over the tax apron and is expected to continue making moves to align their roster and payroll more favorably.
