The Celtics may be able to keep Tacko Fall around, while still giving him reps in the G League.

Boston is signing Max Strus to a two-year NBA deal, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.

The Boston Celtics are signing two-way guard Max Strus to a two-year NBA deal, with a partial guarantee this season of nearly half of rookie minimum, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.

Strus previously had a two-way deal with the C’s. By signing him to an NBA deal, one of Boston’s two-way spots opens up. Tremont Waters is the Celtics’ other two-way player.

Because of the amount of money Javonte Green is guaranteed, he’s not eligible for a two-way deal. This puts Fall in position to fill that two-way spot.
