Celtics dwindling backup center options

The Boston Celtics have had a busy offseason. When the NBA moratorium lifts at 12:00 noon ET on Wednesday, the Celtics can officially complete their trade for Malcolm Brogdon. They’ll need to wait a bit longer to sign Danilo Gallinari, as he has yet to be waived by the San Antonio Spurs.

Here’s what we’re waiting on for Boston to finalize:

· Acquiring Malcolm Brogdon for Malik Fitts, Juwan Morgan, Aaron Nesmith, Nik Stauskas, Daniel Theis and a top-12 protected 2023 first-round pick

· Signing Danilo Gallinari to a reported two-year deal for the full Taxpayer MLE

· Re-signing Sam Hauser to a three-year deal

· Re-signing Luke Kornet to a two-year deal

Brad Stevens said his offseason goals were to add bench scoring, to add some shooting with size and to shore up the team’s playmaking.
