According to Shams Charania, the Boston Celtics have been granted a $3.23 million injured player exception owing to free agent signing Danilo Gallinari’s preseason injury. When a player sustains a season-ending injury, they are awarded a disabled player exception. Boston utilized its taxpayer mid-level exception on Gallinari in free agency and now has a half-million-dollar exception to employ in the buyout market or trade.
Other notable exceptions available to the Celtics include a $6.9 million trade exception they obtained by trading Juancho Hernangomez and a $5.9 million exception they acquired by trading Dennis Schroder to Houston. Both passed away before the trade closing date. These three exceptions are valuable, but they cannot combine them. Celtics could essentially sign a player for $6.9 million, another for $5.9 million, and a third for up to $3.23 million. Although those numbers might result in reasonable reserves, they won’t significantly alter Boston’s squad. If Boston feels the need to make quick upgrades, it could also conceivably move Gallinari and his $6.5 million contract.
The disabled player exception has the benefit of not prorating throughout the season like other exceptions, which is a benefit. With more than $3 million to offer, the Celtics may make a solid offer for any players that become available on the free agent market during the season. Buyout contracts are typically minimum-salary agreements prorated over less than half of the remaining regular season.
This season, sans Gallinari, the 6-3 Celtics have managed just fine. Boston has had to deal with the absence of Gallinari, Robert Williams III’s injury, and the departure of head coach Ime Udoka, who will likely take over the Brooklyn Nets after serving a season-long suspension from Boston. However, it never hurts to have the resources to bolster your roster, and Boston now has several options for bringing in quality at different points during the season.
