Who could the Boston Celtics target with the Grant Williams traded player exception?

Fans of the Boston Celtics were rightfully irked by the mediocre return they received from the Dallas Mavericks in the sign-and-trade of restricted free agent Grant Williams. Some second-round picks were the focal point.

But the Charlotte native’s new deal netted the Celtics a $6.2 million traded player exception (TPE), smaller than his actual deal value due to base year compensation rules. The Celtics would likely need to make other moves for the TPE to be usable financially, but it bring in a helpful player or two in the right situation.
