While the Celtics have already made a pair of notable splashes this offseason, they might have some more work to do.
Forward Grant Williams is eligible to sign an extension this offseason as he enters the final year of his four-year rookie deal. However, the Celtics only have until Oct. 17 to agree to an extension with Williams or he’ll become a free agent in the summer of 2023.
Both sides have discussed a deal, but an agreement seems nowhere near imminent, according to The Athletic’s Jared Weiss.
“Williams is eligible for an extension and held talks with the organization earlier in the offseason, but those have not resumed since July, per a league source,” Weiss wrote.
