The Boston Celtics have waived former University of Connecticut standout Rodney Purvis, per multiple reports.
Boston, who acquired Purvis in a deal sending Abdel Nader to the Oklahoma City Thunder, will find itself $2.5 million over the luxury tax line after making this move, done perhaps as much as a favor to Nader as it was to save money and make a move to get under the tax by season's end a little more plausible.
While Purvis' lightening-fast first step might have been an interesting option to consider attempting to rehabilitate the young guard's value, his non-guaranteed deal likely outweighed any promise Never Nervous might still have to an NBA franchise looking for cheap depth pieces.
