The Celtics are reportedly planning to waive forward Jabari Parker, according to The Athletic and Stadium’s Shams Charania.
“Celtics maintain roster flexibility with an open roster spot ahead of roster guarantee date,” Charania wrote. “Parker showed scoring ability over the past season in Boston.”
Parker’s $2.2 million contract would have been fully guaranteed Friday evening if he weren’t waived, and it appears the Celtics have made the decision to look elsewhere.
He averaged 4.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 12 games with Boston this season while shooting 47.4 percent from the field, 50 percent from 3, and 100 percent from the line.
