After three seasons with the Timberwolves, Garza is headed to the Eastern Conference and will do so on a fully guaranteed contract. In 39 games last season, the 6-foot-10 center averaged 3.5 points and 1.4 rebounds in 5.6 minutes. While he did not have much of a role in Minnesota, that may change for Garza in Boston. The Celtics lost Kristaps Porzingis (Atlanta) via trade, Luke Kornet (San Antonio) in free agency and Al Horford could also leave as a free agent. Garza should not be on draft radars, but that could change if the Celtics move one of their remaining stars this offseason.

Minott had his team option declined by the Timberwolves only days ago. A second-round pick in 2022, the 22-year-old power forward averaged just 6.0 minutes per game for the Timberwolves last year. While he struggled to carve out a legitimate role last year, he showed flashes when he was afforded minutes. Minott could have a better chance to establish himself in Boston with the Celtics losing a good amount players in free agency and superstar Jayson Tatum likely to miss the entire regular season.

The Magic officially selected the versatile Shulga, but the pick is headed to Boston via trade. According to ESPN’s Jonathan Givony, the former VCU standout will be on a two-way contract. The good news for Shulga is that Boston’s G League program has been a positive asset, which should help his development. He’s a versatile guard who can play on or off the ball offensively and earned Atlantic 10 Player of the Year honors as a senior.

Reportedly acquired from the Kings in exchange for Dario Šarić, it’s reportedly possible that Valančiūnas will not suit up for the Nuggets in 2025-26. According to BasketNews, Greek power Panathinaikos has offered the veteran center a three-year, €12 million contract. Should he remain in the NBA, Valančiūnas will make nearly $10.4 million with the Nuggets, but the final year of his deal (2026-27) is not guaranteed. The Nuggets appeared to have shored up their backup center position with the Valančiūnas trade, but they’ll be forced to return to the drawing board if he decides to return to Europe to continue his career.

Landale’s contract included a guarantee date of July 7. The 29-year-old center had no place on the Rockets roster any longer with the team re-signing Steven Adams and bringing in Clint Capela. Landale is expected to sign with his preferred destination, according to Charania, though it’s unclear where he’s headed to just yet.

Unsurprisingly, Ayton has decided to join the Lakers after agreeing with the Trail Blazers on a contract buyout. Los Angeles had a clear need at the center position, and they’ll look to the first overall pick in the 2018 draft to fill it. While he has averaged a double-double in his first seven seasons, Ayton’s last two years in Portland were underwhelming. Limited to 40 games last year due to injury, he averaged 14.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.0 three-pointers in 30.2 minutes. Ayton is not the uber-athletic center who tends to flourish playing alongside Luka Doncic, but he’ll play starter’s minutes for a hopeful contender. Being in a lineup with Doncic, LeBron James and Austin Reaves will limit Ayton’s fantasy ceiling, but providing top-100 per-game value should not be an issue.
