4. Marcus Smart: $14,339,285
Marcus Smart will make $14million for his efforts this season. Smart has also already agreed to a four-year, $77M extension with the Celtics. The extension will kick in from the 2024/23 season and tie him down all the way to the 2025-26 season.
3. Jaylen Brown: $25,633,928

2. Al Horford: $27,000,000
The 5 times NBA All-Star is the 2nd highest-paid player at Celtics, making $27million this year. Horford is the highest-paid Latin American player ever. The 35-year-old has one more year to go on his current contract, and whether he renews, retires or moves elsewhere is a thing to keep an eye out for.
