To try and figure out what Boston will do in free agency, first we’ll need to review their cap situation going into the off-season. Boston is mostly limited to small moves unless they ship out the Kemba Walker or Marcus Smart contracts. As you’ll see below, Boston is under the luxury tax by just about $600k without the Fournier contract added to the mix, which I believe if they are serious about contending next season they will absolutely attempt to resign Evan Fournier. As for what that could be for, there were rumors following the loss that he is seeking between $15-$20million, and I think if they sign him it’ll probably settle somewhere in the middle.
