The Celtics still have one cut to make, but they’d rather not have to wield that blade. According to league sources, the Celts have been looking to make a more-bodies-for-fewer deal that would leave them at, or below, the 15-man limit.

It has been indicated either Michael Olowokandi, Luke Jackson or Allan Ray will have to go. But coach Doc Rivers reiterated yesterday it would be tough to let go of a veteran big man with Theo Ratliff still out (back strain).

Ray, an impressive shooter who also might fit into the point guard rotation, is one they’d like to keep. Jackson is a good shooter in a crowded field.
