Because the Boston Celtics are projected to exceed the luxury tax threshold, they will be allowed to use the projected $6.3 million taxpayers Jay King of The Athletic listed 12 players the Celtics could target with that mid-level exception this offseason. One of the best options out of the 12 that King lists is Danilo Gallinari.
King points out that if Atlanta decides to let him go this summer, the Celtics should target Gallinari for his 3-point shooting skills.
As of June 2022, Gallinari is not a free agent, but the final year of his contract is only partially guaranteed at $4.5 million.
At least for now, Gallinari remains under contract Still, only $4.5 million of his $21.5 million contract is guaranteed. If the Hawks decide to do without him, he would immediately become one of the most established scorers on the market. Although he will be 34 before he starts the season and had defensive limitations even in his prime, he has shot more than 40 percent on 3-pointers in three of the last four seasons.
