Celtics Free Agents

According to this list - the Boston Celtics really only have three free agents this upcoming off-season: Grant Williams, Blake Griffin, and Danilo Gallinari (who never played a second for Boston since signing because of injury). 

Gallinari has a $6.8 million player option for next year and I'd expect him to be in a Celtics uniform next season. Grant Williams is a restricted free agent so I'd expect the Celtics to let him test the market and then decide if they want to match whatever offer he receives. Williams is a pest that I enjoy watching. If he's playing against your team - you'd definitely dislike the guy. Blake Griffin may simply retire (or sign a 1-year contract at the veteran minimum).

The big question this summer will be if Jaylen Brown becomes eligible for a super-max extension and if he signs it.

This is a long way around the barn way of saying that the Boston Celtics team that takes the floor tonight against the Miami heat will be mostly intact next season as well (barring trades or injuries). That's good news for Boston fans.
