Completely forgotten during this free agency, Dennis Schroder must undoubtedly regret his behavior. But a way out may be present for the leader, who will have to hope for a quick outcome. We take stock.
Arrived at the Lakers last year in the skin of a sixth man, Dennis Schroder surprised the world by wishing to start in the starting 5. Many did not appreciate in the City of Angels, although the Angelinos did not have much of a choice, in accepting his request. The result ? A very average season, and a behavior that does not help.
Even though the German performed well, the point is that he turned down an extension to over $ 80 million. An amount rather fair in view of its services, except for the player’s clan. Today, and while the free agency has been open for almost a week, we imagine that the regrets are present.
Because yes, Schroder is still on the market, and hopes for a small miracle. Most teams have spent their cap space, which means that the person concerned can forget about his big contract. He will have to make concessions, perhaps hoping to set the record straight next year. A short term contract? This is arguably the best option, and this is where the Celtics come in.
With the loss of Kemba Walker, Boston is still looking for a quality point guard to surround Jayson Tatum and company. According to Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report, the Massachusetts franchise has reached out to Schroder to negotiate a deal. Discussions are ongoing, but the means are limited. A sign-and-trade? A one-year contract? The options are open.

The Celtics are in negotiations to get free agent Dennis Schroder back, sources say. Discussions continue as Boston must resolve its issue at the top.
Dennis Schroder could bounce back at the Celtics, which wouldn’t be a bad thing given the fiasco. His free agency is failed, and a questioning is quickly expected for the German.
