Report: Ron Harper Jr. to sign 3-year, $9M deal with Celtics

Jun 27, 2026 | 11:50 AM

The Boston Celtics are re-signing Ron Harper Jr. to a new three-year, $9 million contract, ESPN reported Saturday.

The Celtics are declining the 26-year-old forward’s $2.6 million team option for 2026-27 to commit to the longer deal.

Harper averaged 4.2 points and 11.0 minutes in 29 games (three starts) in his first season with Boston in 2025-26.

He has averaged 3.7 points in 40 games (three starts) in parts of four NBA seasons with the Toronto Raptors, Detroit Pistons and Celtics.

Undrafted out of Rutgers in 2022, Harper is the son of five-time NBA champion Ron Harper and the older brother of San Antonio Spurs guard Dylan Harper.
