The Celtics have picked up their option on Juwan Morgan for next season, tweets Keith Smith of Spotrac.
Morgan’s contract remains non-guaranteed, Smith adds, and he doesn’t have a guarantee date before early January, when all contracts through the league become guaranteed. The option is worth $1,815,677.
The 25-year-old power forward signed a 10-day deal with Boston in late March and then a standard contract on April 9, one day before the end of the regular season. He got into just one game and played a single game for the Raptors as well on a 10-day contract.
Morgan spent his first two NBA seasons with the Jazz, averaging 1.4 PPG while seeing minimal playing time in 50 total games.
Juwan to come back next season?
Just to potentially use for salary-matching?
Not sure his salary would even count.
Maybe they see something in him, jeez.
