Max Shulga is coming off his rookie season in the NBA with the Boston Celtics.
The 24-year-old was the 57th pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
He appeared in 11 games for the Celtics.
However, Shulga became a free agent this summer.
Keith Smith of Spotrac wrote (on June 29): “The Boston Celtics did not tender qualifying offers to Max Shulga or John Tonje, a league source told @spotrac. Both Shulga and Tonje will be unrestricted free agents this offseason.”
