ESPN just dropped its post-free agency NBA power rankings, and the Celtics land at 17th overall (7th in the East).
How do you feel about this placement?

I know we offloaded money but got not much in return and don’t have JT to start the season. 17 is fair considering. Bad offseason so far.

🇵🇹Welcome to the summer of Neemias Queta
He just led Portugal to their first-ever win over Spain, recording 17 PTS and 9 REB (both team-highs)
That's my starting center 😤
Chris Boucher might have some apologizing to do to Joe Mazzulla before they can get down to business😂
An updated look at the Celtics' assets:
$4M over the 1st apron as things currently stand. Have to imagine they're going to try and get below that.

The Celtics' signing of Chris Boucher reunites him with his former Oregon teammate Payton Pritchard.
The two overlapped at Oregon for the 2016-17 season, when they both started 35 games for the Ducks.
After trading Georges Niang, the Celtics have signed F/C Chris Boucher to a 1-year, $3.3M deal.
Boucher brings much-needed size and should help fill the frontcourt void left by Niang & the rest of their offseason departures.
Massachusetts native Georges Niang is on his way out, but RJ Luis Jr. brings his own local roots to the Celtics.
Luis played his freshman season at UMass, earning A-10 All-Freshman honors, before transferring to St. John's, where he was a 2025 Second-Team All-American.
BREAKING: The Celtics are trading Georges Niang and two future second-round picks to the Utah Jazz for RJ Luis Jr.
It's a salary dump for the C's, who get even further below the second apron.
