After a fairly quiet NBA trade deadline by the Boston Celtics, the defending champs will now hit the buyout market to fill at least one open roster spot

The Celtics do have limitations in terms of who they can sign on the buyout market. Boston is above the second apron so they aren’t allowed to sign players that were making more than the non-taxpayer midlevel exception ($12.9 million) when they were bought out.

Ingram, a former All-Star who boasts length and versatility, will join young All-Star Scottie Barnes on a Raptors team that will also be in the running for a high draft pick. Worth noting: Ingram was a potential Sixers offseason target, before they signed George to a max contract in free agency.
