Lonnie Walker IV

BOS Shooting Guard #8

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Celtics have signed Lonnie Walker IV to a one-year deal.

As of Wednesday afternoon, Boston had 14 players on standard contracts for the 2024-25 season, but Shams Charania of The Athletic reported that Walker will be on an Exhibit 10 deal. The 2018 first-round pick appeared in 58 games for the Nets last season, averaging 9.7 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists, and 1.8 3-pointers in 17.4 minutes. Walker shot nearly 39% from three, which could be where he boosts Boston if the minutes are there. However, the Celtics are deep on the perimeter, making it difficult for Walker to achieve fantasy relevance for the reigning champs.
Jrue Holiday

BOS Point Guard #4

Jrue Holiday (sprained ankle) will be available for Tuesday’s quarterfinal matchup against Brazil.

Holiday did not play in the United States’ final group round game, a blowout of Puerto Rico on Saturday afternoon. However, the injury is not severe, as coach Steve Kerr said the Celtics guard would have played if it were a medal-round game. After starting the opener against Serbia, Holiday came off the bench for the South Sudan game in which he was injured (Jayson Tatum started). Tatum also started against Puerto Rico, but Brazil’s size and physicality could keep him with the first five, and Holiday would come off the bench.
Jrue Holiday

BOS Point Guard #4

Jrue Holiday (sprained ankle) will not play in Saturday’s game against Puerto Rico.

Holiday injured his ankle during the United States’ victory over South Sudan and will miss the team’s final group-stage game. Jayson Tatum, who started that win, and Derrick White are possible options to fill the void. Team USA needs a win over Puerto Rico, which has already been eliminated, to clinch the top seed in the quarterfinals. This would also mean a matchup with Brazil on Tuesday.
Jordan Walsh

BOS Small Forward #27

Jordan Walsh finished Sunday’s 103-98 loss to Philadelphia with 18 points (7-of-14 FGs), seven rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and four 3-pointers in 31 minutes.

Walsh’s final action in Las Vegas was good overall, as the 2023 second-round pick shot 50% from the field and made more than half of his seven 3-point attempts. Add in the rebounds and blocked shots; this was a solid way for him to head into the offseason. The turnovers (six) were problematic, but that isn’t something to be too concerned about. Walsh’s role in summer league did not align with his likely role once the regular season begins, as Boston will have most of its rotation from last season’s title team back in uniform. Walsh’s best path to consistent playing time is to defend his position well, as the Celtics have more than enough scorers.
Sam Hauser

BOS Small Forward #30

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reports that Sam Hauser has agreed to a four-year, $45 million extension to remain with the Celtics.

Hauser averaged career bests in minutes (22.0), points (9.0) and made three-pointers (2.5) in 2023-24, and he ranked 11th in the Association in three-point percentage at 42.4.
Anton Watson

BOS Small Forward

Anton Watson played 24 minutes in Wednesday’s 89-84 win over Charlotte, finishing with 15 points (6-of-12 FTs), five rebounds, two assists, two steals, one block, and three 3-pointers.

Watson, the 54th overall pick in last month’s draft, has yet to sign a contract with the Celtics officially. Boston has one two-way and one standard contract spot available, so it remains to be seen what kind of deal he will sign. Despite the contract status, Watson appears likely to get most of his playing time with the Celtics’ G League affiliate, which was the case for Drew Peterson and Jordan Walsh last season.
Neemias Queta

BOS Center #88

Neemias Queta played 25 minutes in Monday’s 88-74 win over the Lakers, scoring 22 points (7-of-10 FGs, 8-of-9 FTs), eight rebounds, and three blocked shots.

The Celtics have depth at the center position, even with Kristaps Porzingis (leg) expected to miss 5-6 months after undergoing surgery last month. Queta wasn’t considered by many to be in the equation, but his play in Las Vegas may change that. After tallying 20 points and nine rebounds in Saturday’s loss to the Heat, the 7-footer put up 22 and eight with three blocks against the Lakers. Queta’s contract for next season is guaranteed, so he will be on the roster. As for getting the minutes needed to be relevant in fantasy leagues, Queta’s best chance will be on nights when Al Horford doesn’t play.
Jaden Springer

BOS Shooting Guard #44

Jaden Springer finished Saturday’s loss to the Heat with 23 points (8-of-15 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), two rebounds, six assists, two steals, and three 3-pointers in 25 minutes.

After failing to crack the Celtics rotation after being acquired at the February trade deadline, Springer aims to change that in 2024-25. The 2021 first-round pick played well on Saturday, leading the Celtics in scoring while dishing out six assists without committing a turnover. The Celtics have starters Derrick White and Jrue Holiday, and backup Payton Pritchard has also earned his opportunities. The path to a rotation spot won’t be easy for Springer to travel, but days like Saturday will help.
Neemias Queta

BOS Center #88

Neemias Queta logged 23 minutes in Saturday’s loss to the Heat, amassing 20 points (9-of-15 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one blocked shot.

Queta is looking to earn rotation minutes after only playing 28 games for the champions last season. Saturday’s performance was a step in the right direction, as he was productive across the board against the Heat. Kristaps Porzingis (leg) will miss at least 5-6 months, and Al Horford did not play both ends of any back-to-backs last season. Even with the Celtics re-signing Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman, there may be times next season when Queta can offer streaming value.
Baylor Scheierman

BOS Shooting Guard

Baylor Scheierman played 24 minutes in Saturday’s 119-114 loss to Miami, finishing with 13 points (4-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), five rebounds, six assists, one steal, and three 3-pointers.

Scheierman got off to a slow start in his summer debut but eventually showed the tools that led to his being selected with the 30th overall pick in last month’s draft. In addition to the perimeter shooting ability, the former Creighton standout is a capable playmaker, and he finished Saturday’s loss with six assists and just one turnover. Boston’s depth on the perimeter could make it difficult for Scheierman to offer consistent fantasy value as a rookie, but the skill set is there if he can get the minutes.
