Overview
- The team elevated rookie guard Max Shulga from a two-way to a standard two-year contract, with next season reported as non-guaranteed.
- His prorated cap hit for the rest of 2025–26 is about $219,460, a lower-cost option than a veteran minimum that helps Boston stay under the tax line.
- Boston also added center Charles Bassey on a 10-day contract to reach the league’s 14-player roster minimum after operating with 12 following February salary-shedding trades.
- Converting Shulga creates an open two-way slot that cannot be filled this season due to the passed in-season two-way signing deadline.
- Shulga has appeared sparingly in the NBA but has produced for G League Maine with roughly 16 points, 4–5 rebounds and 6–7 assists per game on high-volume three-point shooting.
