Celtics, Payton Pritchard Working On Extension
1 year agoBoston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard is entering his fourth year in the league and is eligible for an extension if they can work one out before the regular season begins. According to Jared Weiss of The Athletic, the two sides began extension discussions after they dealt for Jrue Holiday. Pritchard is expected to be a key depth piece behind Holiday and Derrick White, so they want to make sure they have their bench options locked up. Reportedly, there's still a gap between both sides, so they'll need to cover some ground over the next few weeks. Pritchard should see more opportunities either way and he could become more fantasy-relevant in deeper leagues.
