Some might have forgotten that newly acquired center for the Boston Celtics Enes Kanter was a valuable part of the New York Knicks roster when they decided to waive him last season. Picked up by the Portland Trailblazers, Kanter was an important part to the team’s playoff run. Kanter went into free agency as one of the top centers on the market. The Celtics and Kanter agreed on a deal, giving Boston a much needed backbone at the five slot.
Kanter and the Celtics agreed on a two-year , $10M contract, with a player option after the first year.
