This postseason will be different, but that could actually stand to benefit the Boston Celtics rookie class.

Although we know that the Boston Celtics will be returning to the hardwood at the end of July–possibly the 30th as opposed to the 31st–we don’t know exactly the end product will look like with the NBA now venturing into uncharted waters.

Roster flexibility will be key as the league aims to finish the season during an ongoing pandemic. That could mean two-way players Tremont Waters and Tacko Fall could be seated court-side at Disney’s Wide World of Sports…or even playing in regular season games.
