Boston Celtics reserve big man Luke Kornet will see his bank account get just a little bit bigger today. His deal for the 2022-23 season has one of several partial guarantees kick in if he is not waived by the team today, according to Celtics Blog’s Keith Smith.
With no hints the former Vanderbilt player will be cut today, it appears Kornet will have his contract guaranteed for $300,000, a considerable step up from the $100,000 he was already guaranteed. Another $200,000 guarantee kicks in on opening night, meaning approximately half of his deal, worth slightly more than $1 million, will be guaranteed at that point.
