For Evan Turner it’s Celtics or big payday

Evan Turner’s new business means stepping back for a moment while agent David Falk begins fleshing out the impending NBA free agent’s market.

As he has said multiple times, Turner hopes that means a return to the Celtics, though as a player who just finished arguably the best season of his career, there will be a lot of alternatives.

A rising salary cap is about to pump lots of money into the marketplace, meaning Turner couldn’t have a better sense of timing if he tried.

The Celtics have an interesting advantage, though.

“I learned that winning’s great and how it’s going to be the most important thing,” said Turner of his main takeaway from the last two years with the Celtics.
