Grant Williams has been an important rotation player on the Boston Celtics’ roster for several years. Throughout his tenure with the team, he has shown potential and versatility on the basketball court. Williams’ familiarity with the organization, the city of Boston, and the dynamics of the locker room make him an attractive candidate to retain.
However, the decision to re-sign Williams is not just based on his on-court contributions. Financial considerations play a significant role in shaping the Celtics’ decision-making process under the league’s new CBA. The team is already over the luxury tax threshold, which limits their financial flexibility.
Keeping Williams would further strain their salary cap situation and potentially result in a host of onerous penalties.
Should Boston keep Williams, or let him walk? Check out the clip embedded above to get the opinion of “Locked On Celtics” host John Karalis.
