The Celtics recently acquired Anfernee Simons from the Trail Blazers but are already contemplating trading him to improve their roster flexibility. With a high salary commitment of approximately $203 million, which exceeds the luxury tax threshold, trading Simons, who has a $27.7 million salary for the upcoming season, could be an avenue for cap relief. However, simply trading him may not be enough to eliminate luxury tax issues due to current cap constraints across the league.
Anfernee Simons might not have time to settle in Boston as the Celtics consider trading him to create roster flexibility and retain key free agents.
Despite trading Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis, the Celtics remain significantly above the luxury tax threshold, with a total salary commitment of approximately $203 million.
