NBA Rumors: Celtics Have ‘Had Talks’ With Terry Rozier About New Contract

Perhaps Terry Rozier has a future in Boston, after all.

The Celtics have had discussions with the 25-year-old guard about possibly signing a new deal, Steve Kyler of Basketball Insiders reported Sunday. Kyler’s report also included a note about Boston having recently engaged with the Houston Rockets on trade talks involving star big man Clint Capela.

Rozier will be a restricted free agent this offseason.

Last month, Rozier indicated he would not be interested in returning to Boston if it returned the same roster it had last season. Whether Rozier’s desire to re-sign is tied to Kyrie Irving’s looming free agency decision is anyone’s guess.

The Louisville product averaged 9.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game last season.
