Back in 2022, the Boston Celtics agreed to an almost $6 million traded player exception (TPE) as part of a deal involving Dennis Schroder moving to the Houston Rockets. Almost one year later, that same deal is set to expire on Friday. One way for the Boston Celtics to make upgrades that will cause the least amount of impact on their funds would be to absorb a valuable player through their traded player exception in exchange for either one or two picks in the second round. In addition to this, they can add a player from the bottom of their bench to improve their squad and increase their NBA odds in the coming season.
How could the Celtics upgrade their roster at a low cost?
