[Shams Charania] The Boston Celtics have waived G/F Justin Champagnie, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Champagnie was signed to a multiyear deal out of the NBA G League late last season.

Two open roster spots now. Bring me Blake plus someone else
“I can’t wait to play against Boston. When the schedule will be unveiled, I’ll put an X on the games we will play at Boston against the Celtics”. – Justin Champagnie
Sad that we didn’t get to celebrate a title with Champagnie. Oh well.
Hell yeah. Give Blake a spot. Played well beyond anyone expected last year. I never understood why he would have a great game starting and then we wouldn’t play him even for limited minutes to help alleviate everyone else’s minutes. Something Joe has to do this year a little better. Not to mention he’s a top notch locker room guy, which ask our ousters last year can definitely have it’s value to the overall organization.
Can’t wait for some random NBA article about how the Celtics did Champagnie dirty by not keeping him and signing him to a 3 year extension. The media slander on our player personnel moves is getting out of control.
This must mean we’ve at least made a decision regarding our backup PG role. Because Malcom is unreliable due to injury , so either Fast PP steps up or something else is happening
I know this seems crazy…But this confirms that the Celtics aren’t going after Lilliard.
Salary matching would be extremely tight, and most realistic trade proposals needed those 2M in it.
It was matter of time after like 2 summer league games when the idea of an open roster spot was more exciting than the guy in it
Hopefully Kornet is next.
Honestly I think the final 2 spots are for a vet wing and a big. A vet PG in the buyout market can also be in place
Thank you
Good
YES!!!!
