The Boston Celtics and Phoenix Suns have both expressed interest in acquiring Houston Rockets wing Jae’Sean Tate. Both teams are actively seeking rotation upgrades, but their trade capabilities are somewhat limited.
Tate’s salary for the current season is $6.5 million, and there is a team option for $7.1 million in 2024-25. The reasonable salary for the current season allows Boston and Phoenix to structure potential deals.
The Celtics could use the contracts of minimum-salary players to match Tate’s $6.5 million, while the Suns could explore similar deals or potentially include Nassir Little as a matching salary in a trade.
