Rising expectation Celtics could make a move
Jason Terry - G - Boston Celtics
Feb. 2, 2013 - 9:05 AM ET
There is a "rising expectation" that the Celtics will look to move one of Jason Terry, Courtney Lee or Brandon Bass before the trade deadline to get under the luxury-tax threshold.
In other words, the Celtics are far more likely to make a minor deal than to blow it up. Bass was re-signed to a three-year, $20 million deal in the offseason, and with Jared Sullinger (back) done for the season, it's hard to imagine the Celtics shipping out frontcourt depth. It's more likely that the C's move one of Terry or Lee if they do make a move, but both players also signed multi-year contracts in the offseason.
