What happened: Watson is a 25-year-old, 6-foot-8 Gonzaga alum. Boston selected him 54th overall in 2024.

Why it matters: Los Angeles carries 16 standard contracts into camp. Dalton Knecht remains in the roster squeeze with Jarred Vanderbilt also in trade chatter.

What to watch: Watson competes through the preseason for a roster or two-way spot.
