I hope this comes across as the easiest and cleanest way to describe this. The NBA is going through changes with it’s new collective bargaining agreement. The NBA cap is the worst cap in all of pro sports and NBA teams play their cap guys upwards of $6 million dollars. On July 1, 2023, the new CBA will officially take effect. It’s a seven-year agreement through the 2029-30 NBA season and it has new salary cap rules that include a second tax apron, penalties for violating tax aprons and new rules on contract extensions.

Boston doesn’t have enough cap space to sign some of the biggest names this offseason, but they will have plenty of space next year. So, the C’s don’t want to spend too much now and ruin their opportunity to hit on a big fish in the future. With all of that said, the Celtics most likely won’t be in the Kyle Lowry/Mike Conley/Goran Dragic sweepstakes, but there are some enticing free-agent depth guards ..read more
