Celtics Likely To Leave Final Roster Spot Open For Now

The Boston Celtics have one open standard roster spot for the regular season. This spot opened after the team waived J.D. Davison from his non-guaranteed contract. However, don't look for the Celtics to rush to fill that spot anytime soon.

Boston is just $1.9 million under the second apron. The Celtics aren't going to finish this season as a second-apron team, as the team's salary-reducing moves earlier this summer have indicated.

For now, expect the Celtics to leave that spot open. They may fill it in-season, when a prorated deal will fit in under the second apron. Boston may also consider further moves to shed salary, as they are currently $9.9 million above the first apron and $17.9 million above the luxury tax.
