Overview

  • Boston waived two-way forward Miles Norris on August 10 to comply with the NBA’s three two-way player limit.
  • Max Shulga signed his two-way deal on August 6 after being selected 57th overall in June, and RJ Luis Jr. took the other spot following his trade acquisition.
  • Boston traded Georges Niang and two second-round picks to the Utah Jazz for undrafted rookie RJ Luis Jr., who retained his two-way contract.
  • Amari Williams, the Celtics’ 46th overall pick, is expected to sign next to complete Boston’s trio of two-way players.
  • Two-way contracts allow players to split time between the NBA and G League without affecting the salary cap or luxury tax.
