The Boston Celtics have their work cut out for them this offseason as they look to remain competitive amid the absence of Jayson Tatum. That won't be easy considering the team has one of the highest payrolls in professional sports.
The Celtics figure to enter the offseason more than $73 million over the projected salary cap, and $20 million over the second apron. That could force the front office's hand and lead to the team parting ways with one of its top players in order to free up some cap space.
