Rumor: Celtics interested in Danilo Gallinari

Because who couldn’t use more shooting?

Steve Bulpett mentioned that the Celtics are still interested in Danilo Gallinari.

You can expect the Celts to keep an eye on Danilo Gallinari, a shooter they’ve tried to get in the past. Ainge has an NBA man-crush on Gallinari, who hasn’t been on the rumor radar, but that also was the case when Ainge went after Isaiah Thomas two years ago.

As well as the Celtics have shot, they could always use more floor spacing.

I've never liked him myself, so my guess is this happens.

He can shoot, but who goes to match his salary? Johnson best matches, but they play totally different positions and I don't think that we can give away any of our big men without getting a big man back in return.
