Question

Do the Celtics have a trade exception?

Answer 1

He can't be used in a sign-and- trade deal. The Celtics will lose these exceptions if they go under the cap to use room. If the Celtics are at risk of going into tax territory, they may forfeit the bi-annual exception and have to use the taxpayer mid-level exception ($5,711,000) rather than the full mid-level exception.
