Sources: AD responds to security guard’s crash

The Boston Celtics waived forward Tristan Enaruna. Boston signed guard Jay Scrubb to an Exhibit 10 deal to fill out their training camp roster.

Enaruna did not appear in either of the Celtics preseason games against the Denver Nuggets in Abu Dhabi. The 6-foot-8 forward is expected to join the Maine Celtics for the upcoming G League season.

Scrubb missed last season due to a torn ACL. He was set to join Boston on a two-way deal for last season prior to the injury. Scrubb is also expected to play for Maine in the G League this season. The 6-foot-4 combo guard is fully recovered from the ACL injury and ready to resume his career.

When the Denver Nuggets begin their search for a new president of basketball operations, they are expected to have Tim Connelly and Matt Lloyd on their list of candidates.

Connelly has an opt-out in his contract with the Minnesota Timberwolves, but the new ownership group of Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez are expected to do what it takes to retain him. Connelly left the Nuggets in 2022 to run the front office of the Wolves on a five-year, $40 million deal that represented a significant raise over his Denver compensation.

Lloyd joined Connelly in 2022 after an extended tenure with the Orlando Magic.
