Dopo una Summer League coi Celtics che gli ha restituito l'immagine di un giocatore finalmente sano, pare che il lungo tiratore Killian Tillie sia mietendo interesse:

After suffering a back injury that forced him to undergo a medical procedure and miss the final two months of the 2021-22 NBA season, Killian Tillie hadn’t been cleared for a full return when he was waived by the Grizzlies on Oct. 15, 2022, just three days before the team’s regular-season opener. Tillie returned to Spokane, rehabbed, recovered and ramped up for training camp workouts in the late spring/early summer with hopes he’d latch on with another NBA team. The 6-foot-9 forward had a number of feelers, with strong interest coming from the Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers in particular.
By late spring, Tillie was prepared to resume his professional career, but he took a more cautious and intentional approach this time, only conducting a few workouts before his agent began making phone calls. One of those was to the Celtics, who were in the process of completing a 4-1 NBA Finals series win over the Dallas Mavericks when they agreed to bring Tillie in for summer league. “They’re a great organization to be with so I didn’t think twice,” Tillie said.
Boston encouraged Tillie to shoot freely from the perimeter – something that never required much convincing while he was at Gonzaga – and the Celtics allowed him to guard a variety of positions on defense as a result of their heavy switching schemes. “Boston, they want to shoot 3s, so you know we’ve got the green light,” Tillie said. “They give us confidence to shoot every time and also crash the boards and do a little bit of everything. Also defensively, they like to switch on everything so being able to switch on smaller guards is important to be in the league, be a strength on defense. That’s a good thing to do.”

Come si legge, a Boston chiedono di svicciare e bombardare

Signori, le immagini, i sapori e le emozioni del 18 Titolo sono e resteranno sempre nel mio cuore, ma io ora sono già concentrato all'inizio della nuova Stagione: si ci sarà ancora da festeggiare nella prima partita ufficiale con la consegna degli Anelli e del Banner 18, si farà ancora grande festa!!
Ma io sono gio pronto all'inizio della Stagione, quella che voglio definire della conferma, quella che voglio vivere ancora da protagonista assoluto per continuare a scrivere la nostra Leggenda!!
La Squadra deve confermarsi e mirare ancora al traguardo massimo!!!
Sto carico come una molla!

Ci siamo presi una meritata pausa estiva al termine di questa stressante ma fantastica Stagione!
Ma la nuova è alle porte e torneremo a popolare le pagine del Forum per tifare i nostri amati Celtics !

Jared Weiss: The Celtics announced they will hold media day on September 24 at 10:15 am at the Auerbach Center.

Dai...piano piano si ricomincia, io non vedo l'ora !

Bobby Manning: Sources: The #Celtics signed Jordan Schakel to an Exhibit 10 contract. Boston now has 21 players signed ahead of training camp, the offseason max.

Il ragazzo è ben noto nella nostra organizzazione per aver disputato la stagione passata ai Maine Celtics coi quali ha messo insieme una stagione da 13 punti, 5 rimbalzi e 1 assist a partita.
E' una guardia di 26 anni che, io credo, aiuterà negli allenamenti al camp, ma molto molto difficilmente farà mai la squadra.

Michael Scotto: Boston Celtics and Dmytro Skapintsev have agreed to an Exhibit 10 deal, league sources told @hoopshype. The 7-foot-1 center from Ukraine was called up by the New York Knicks last season. He’s two-way eligible and enters training camp looking to compete for a spot with the Celtics.

Ragazzone ucraino alto e grosso, mani educate ed una buona tecnica di tiro anche da fuori, però non salta ed è attaccabilissimo in difesa.
Ha 26 anni, grossi margini di miglioramento non credo possa averne, mi sembra un jobber da training camp.

Keith Smith: Free agent wing Nassir Little has/had workouts with the Boston Celtics, Golden State Warriors, Miami Heat and Sacramento Kings, a league source told @spotrac .

Westchester Knicks: The Westchester Knicks agree to trade the Returning Player Rights to Dmytro Skapintsev to the Maine Celtics in exchange for the Returning Player Rights to Brandon Slater and Joe Wieskamp.

Evidentemente Dmytro interessa e ne verranno testate le doti in quel del Maine.
