The Boston Celtics are leaving no stone unturned of their seek for one other wing so as to add to the roster. In line with a report by SNY’s Ian Begley, the Celtics have added one other title to their checklist of targets within the type of Glen Robinson III, and not too long ago introduced him in for a exercise.

Robinson III is a seven-year NBA veteran, having entered the NBA because the fortieth total choose within the 2014 NBA draft. Throughout his profession, Robinson III has had spells with seven groups, making him the definition of a journeyman within the NBA. Nonetheless, the veteran wing can present low-usage scoring and isn’t a slouch on the defensive finish.

Boston can be anticipated to work out veteran scorer TJ Warren, who’s one 12 months faraway from a foot harm that stored him out of the 2021-22 season. Together with Warren, defensive-minded wing Lamar Stevens is predicted to attend a exercise, as is former Philadelphia 76ers two-way participant Louis King.

With two open roster spots, the Celtics may theoretically add two wings to their roster within the coming weeks. Nevertheless, the extra logical strategy that we’ve seen Stevens take earlier than is that Boston will add yet another participant after which head into the brand new season with one open roster spot.
