What happened
Boston reportedly converted Devin Carter’s camp opportunity into a two-way contract, with local coverage saying the former lottery pick earned the deal after a tryout. The move came as the Celtics wrapped preseason at 4-0.
In the finale, Boston’s reserves outlasted Philadelphia 125-120 in overtime after the Celtics sat their starters. Multiple recaps say the bench and other camp players carried the matchup against the 76ers’ regulars.
Carter now looks set to compete for a developmental role rather than remain just a camp invitee. Boston’s preseason finish suggests the early rotation and bench pecking order still have room to shift.
