Celtics waive player for clear reason (and something else might be next)

The Boston Celtics have officially waived JD Davison, according to PR, clearing his roughly $2.3 million from the books, and dipping back below the dreaded second apron. Boston originally got below the second-apron line following the Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis trades, but signing Luka Garza and Josh Minott brought them less than $1 million back over it.

Waiving Davison doesn’t mean the Celtics are done, however, just that they could be, if they wanted to. Theoretically, the Celtics could roll into next season with their current roster, not change a thing, and be below the second apron by the time the deadline comes around.
