With the Celtics making a bevy of major moves this offseason, it can be hard to keep track of what their roster looks like at this current moment.

As of October 2, here’s Boston’s current full training camp roster:

- Chris Boucher, Forward (No. 99)

- Jalen Bridges, Forward (No. 41)

- Jaylen Brown, Forward (No. 7)

- Kendall Brown, Forward (No. 38)

- Luka Garza, Forward/Center (No. 52)

- Hugo Gonzalez, Forward (No. 28)

- Ron Harper Jr., Forward (No. 13)

- Sam Hauser, Forward (No. 30)

- RJ Luis Jr., Forward (No. 12)

- Josh Minot, Forward (No. 8)

- Wendell Moore Jr., Guard (No. 20)

- Payton Pritchard, Guard (No. 11)

- Neemis Queta, Center (No. 88)

- Baylor Scheierman, Guard/Forward (No. 55)

- Max Shulga, Guard (No. 44)

- Anfernee Simons, Guard (No. 4)

- Jayson Tatum, Forward (No. 0)

- Xavier Tillman, Forward/Center (No. 26)

- Jordan Walsh, Forward (No. 27)

- Derrick White, Guard (No. 9)

- Amari Williams, Center (No. 77)

Towards the end of that alphabetical list is Anfernee Simons, who was traded to the Celtics this summer as a part of the trade that sent two-time NBA champion Jrue Holiday to Portland.

At 26 years old, Simons spent each of his first seven seasons with the Blazers, showing flashes along the way as a player who could one day be among the best three-point shooters in the NBA. He’s a 38.1% career three-point shooter, and was twice over 40% on the season - 42.6% in 2020-21, and 40.5% in 2021-22.

There’s clearly something there for Joe Mazzulla to harness, who has famously said throughout his tenure as Celtics head coach that the most important stat in basketball is three-point attempt rate. And with the team looking to implore a new fast-paced style in 2025-26, logic would tell you Mazzulla will be looking at Simons as someone to help huck three-pointers early and often.

Make no mistake about it, Simons is far from a household name. When you play for Portland, you need to have a Damien Lillard-level career arc to be on the radar of the casual NBA fan. Simons hasn’t had that, and his team hasn’t been to the postseason since his third year in the league. The numbers tell you he’s someone with the potential to impact winning. But at this point, how can we really know?

2025-26 is ripe with opportunity for Simons, entering a contract-year while playing for a team in desperate need of secondary scoring. A player with his skillset in this type of environment could be in line to make himself some serious cash next summer.

Here’s what he told the media at day two of training camp:

"[I want to show] I can impact winning. I think that was one of the big things that you could say about me, is that in the last couple [of] years, where I've been the main guy, we didn't win. So, I want to come in - like I said before, no matter how it looks like, I want to have that winning player stigma on me, and so that's pretty much simple. No matter what it looks like, how hard it is, how much of an adjustment it can be, ups and downs, I want to be able to stretch myself into being that type of player."

With Simons playing on an expiring deal, there was thought this summer that the 6-foot-3 guard could be moved before even playing a game in Boston. But with training camp underway, that no longer appears to be on the table.

Where Simons fits in the rotation with a guard group that includes Derrick White, Payton Pritchard and Baylor Scheierman will be one of the most interesting storylines to monitor early this season.
