The Boston Celtics have a massive update on a potential trade for a newly-acquired guard. Amid such a tumultuous offseason, Boston has made it known that they are still working to get under the second apron of the luxury tax, and the would-be deal can help achieve that.

Additionally, Derrick White has an announcement. An offseason of change hasn't stopped White from pursuing an off-the-court venture where he opened up on his time being traded to the Celtics to kick off the new project.

Finally, big man Kristaps Porzingis opened up on the mysterious illness he had while a member of the Celtics. Now, with the Atlanta Hawks, Porzingis says he feels great, physically, but provided more context on his previous health issues.
