Overview
- The Celtics converted Devin Carter’s Exhibit 10 training‑camp deal to a two‑way contract on Saturday, filling the team’s third two‑way spot alongside Dillon Mitchell and Amari Williams.
- The contract is reported to pay about $678,882 and makes Carter eligible for up to 50 regular‑season games with Boston while he splits time with the Maine Celtics G League affiliate.
- Carter’s single preseason appearance on Oct. 8 produced 17 points, five rebounds, three assists and two steals and helped convince Boston staff to keep him in the organization.
- The Celtics announced no return timetable after Carter was diagnosed with mononucleosis, a viral illness that causes prolonged fatigue and can require weeks of recovery and monitoring for complications like an enlarged spleen.
- Carter’s signing is a low‑risk developmental bet rooted in his 2024 No. 13 draft pedigree and two years in Sacramento, and the two‑way structure lets Boston retain flexibility to convert or move on later without pushing closer to the luxury tax.
