Of all the players the Celtics were expected to rid themselves of in their quest to get below the dreaded NBA second apron, young point guard JD Davison--the team's second-round pick out of Alabama in 2022--was not high on the list.

JD Davison had a heck of a season in the G League, but the Celtics waived the guard to dip back under the NBA's second apron.

The Celtics have made an unexpected roster decision as they prepare for life without Jayson Tatum and eye future flexibility.
