The Boston Celtics are looking to upgrade their depth. Boston is working with limited resources, as their bigger salaries belong to key rotation players. That has the Celtics looking at more affordable options.
Two players who have emerged as targets for the Celtics are Otto Porter Jr. of the Toronto Raptors and Lonnie Walker IV of the Brooklyn Nets.
Porter has played in limited games for the Raptors over the last two seasons due to injuries. However, he was a big part of the Golden State Warriors defeating the Celtics in the 2022 NBA Finals. Porter would give Boston some forward depth.
Walker has played well in a reserve role for the Nets. He’d give the Celtics a bigger guard option off the bench.
Both Porter and Walker are set to be unrestricted free agents following this season.
