In light of the trade that sent Robert Williams to acquire Jrue Holiday, the Boston Celtics signed a big man Wenyen Gabriel to a training camp contract, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Gabriel will vie for a spot on the roster during training camp, addressing the Celtics’ requirement for additional frontcourt depth.

Gabriel boasts four years of NBA experience, having played for several teams, including the Los Angeles Lakers, New Orleans Pelicans, LA Clippers, Sacramento Kings, Portland Trail Blazers, and Brooklyn Nets.

His shortest stints were with the Clippers and Nets, where he made limited appearances during the 2021-22 season. Standing at 6’9″, this versatile big man has moved around the league but has shown promising moments that the Celtics hope to capitalize on during their training camp.

The NBA landscape has recently undergone significant changes, and further developments are expected before the start of training camps. With James Harden’s uncertain future and the possibility of Malcolm Brogdon being traded again, more moves could be on the horizon.

For now, players like Gabriel have a chance to showcase their skills in training camps, as teams seek to fill roster spots ahead of the upcoming season.
