For the Celtics, Wednesday was particularly busy. Boston reportedly agreed to terms for new contracts with Jae Crowder and Jonas Jerebko, in addition to Amir Johnson formerly of the Raptors.
The Celtics were also reportedly in talks with Tobias Harris and Corey Brewer, but Steve Bulpett of the Boston Herald reported “those pursuits have ended.” Talks for Harris fell through when the Magic made it apparent they were prepared to match any offer given to their small forward, so Boston was out.
Following bringing back Crowder for a five-year, $35 million contract that’s fully guaranteed with no opt-outs on either side, the C’s lost interest in Brewer.
Reportedly, Jerebko will be back at $10 million over two years while Johnson’s deal is worth $24 million through two years.
