NBA 2019/20: 3 worst contracts on the Boston Celtics roster

#2 Enes Kanter

Enes Kanter impressed during his short spell with the Portland Trail Blazers

Enes Kanter entered the 2018-19 season as one of the NBA's most overpaid players and he was eventually waived after being benched for much of the season by the New York Knicks. The Turkish center subsequently signed for the Portland Trail Blazers on a minimum deal and impressed as the team reached the Western Conference Finals.

However, while Kanter's notoriously poor defense was solid during the first round against the Oklahoma City Thunder, he struggled as the postseason progressed, and he will be targeted by opposing teams next season.

Nevertheless, facing the prospect of losing Al Horford, the Celtics signed Kanter to a two-year, $10 million contract, and while not the most inflated deal, the Celtics had better options in free agency. Kanter will begin the season as a regular starter, although the Celtics may soon come to regret adding a big that will give up so much on the defensive end.
