After an absolutely torrid 2022 NBA trade deadline, the Boston Celtics found themselves with five open roster spots in need of filling, and while there has since been one filled by former Celtics center Luke Kornet and another converted from a two way deal to a full one for Boston forward Sam Hauser, there’s still plenty of room on the roster with three regular slots and a two way slot vacated by Hauser on his conversion.
It probably wasn’t in Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens’ plans to talk about a particular player he found great success with early in his NBA coaching career in his appearance on the popular New England sports radio show “Toucher and Rich.”
But the team president fielded an inquiry into the possibility of that player’s — Isaiah Thomas — return just the same. “I love Isaiah,” answered Stevens. “I’ve talked to Isaiah ever since he left.”
