Celts/Denver discussed Gallinari deal, but nothing doing as of now. Some conflicting talk from sources, but may want to keep an eye on this.

While this is the first time I’m hearing Danilo Gallinari’s name linked to Boston, we can’t be too surprised considering Denver is blowing up its roster.
Is the 26-year old Gallinari damaged goods?. He missed 18 months (2013-14) with a torn ACL that required three surgeries. He also missed about three weeks last season with a torn meniscus.
On the flip side, he averaged 18.7 ppg after the All-Star break last season, including a 47 point outburst against the Mavericks in April.
From Denver Stiffs:
On the other hand, Gallo recovered fully from his injury, finally, and showed what a very good all-around player he can be. His shooting is not as accurate as it needs to be, but he played good defense and filled up the stat sheet on a nightly basis. He also had a 47-point game. He’s a key piece to the future, if we can resign him.
Gallinari is due to make $11 million in the final year of his contract.
