Ron Harper Jr. Signs New Celtics Deal

Ron Harper Jr. is staying with the Boston Celtics on a new three-year, $9M deal — a bold bet on his upside after being waived by the team this season. The son of Hall of Famer Ron Harper and brother to rising star Dylan, Harper Jr. went undrafted in 2022 but earned his NBA spot with Boston in 2026, averaging 4.2 points in 29 games. His G League fire — where he lit up the Maine Celtics — convinced the Celtics to lock him in for the long haul. This isn’t just a contract; it’s a statement of faith in the next generation of Celtics talent. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
