Celtics waive Max Strus

The Celtics announce that they’ve waived Max Strus, so Javonte Green appears headed to the final roster.— Adam Himmelsbach (@AdamHimmelsbach) October 19, 2019
Looks like the highflying Javonte Green may have nailed down that final roster spot. I liked Strus. He definitely has a role in today's NBA with his sweet stroke. Strus is also a few years younger than Green, so was surprised to see the Celtics go with Javonte. In the end when the Celtics converted Strus 2-way contract into a non guaranteed 2 year contract and gave Tacko Fall the 2-way contract, Strus' job status with the Celtics became more tenuous. There always is a chance that the Celtics decide to pass on Javonte as well and sign another player waived by another team.
