Overview

• Boston moved Kristaps Porzingis to Atlanta and Jrue Holiday to Portland, with Luke Kornet signing in San Antonio and Al Horford reported as headed to Golden State.
• The organization targeted relief from second-apron penalties and could trim roughly $12 million more to drop below the tax threshold.
• Jayson Tatum’s playoff Achilles injury was cited as a factor that sped up the offseason pivot.
• Jaylen Brown said his June arthroscopic debridement for a partially torn right meniscus led to a “great healing summer,” with surgery chosen to ensure full readiness for camp.
• Only Brown and Derrick White are expected to return as starters when the season opens on October 22.
