Celtics Make $2 Million Move Before NBA Free Agency originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Boston Celtics have already achieved their biggest offseason goal: getting under the NBA's second tax apron. Now they have other priorities to turn to, like keeping unrestricted free agents Al Horford and Luke Kornet.

Amid reports that Boston’s original target at No. 32 was taken by the Suns at No. 31 after they traded to get ahead of Boston, Boston opted to scoop up the extra second-round draft capital on Thursday night, along with a 2026 second-round pick and 2027 second-round pick.
