Overview
- The Celtics finalized their 21‑man training camp roster on Thursday, leaving 14 players on standard contracts, two players on two‑way deals and one two‑way slot still open.
- Two two‑way players — Amari Williams and rookie Dillon Mitchell — are already signed and five Exhibit‑10 invitees will compete for the final two‑way contract.
- Coaches face immediate rotation questions, most importantly how to split center minutes between Neemias Queta and Mitchell Robinson and whether Payton Pritchard keeps a starting role.
- Boston added veteran scorers and mentors this offseason in Paul George, Mike Conley and Mitchell Robinson, making careful minutes and health management a key part of the plan.
- Younger players and draft picks such as Chris Cenac Jr., Hugo González and the camp invitees are likely to split time with the Maine Celtics as the team evaluates who can step into regular NBA minutes.
