Boston Celtics: 2 Gordon Hayward trades to Cleveland

Should Gordon Hayward be on the table for trade talks this offseason, the Cleveland Cavaliers could entice the Boston Celtics with these two trade packages.

The rumor mill churned out its first interesting nugget of the offseason for the Boston Celtics: a potential deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers for their star center Andre Drummond. Evan Dammarell of Forbes reported the Cs potentially being in on an Andre Drummond trade this offseason:

"“…if things don’t get better it becomes even easier to flip Drummond and his mammoth expiring contract to another team to recoup assets to assist in their rebuild. Teams like the Boston Celtics, the San Antonio Spurs and the Los Angeles Clippers all make sense as trade destinations for Drummond and according to sources, the Celtics are monitoring the situation.”"

I personally don’t find the idea of Drummond in green and white–and presumably in a deal for Gordon Hayward–to be particularly appealing…but left room for some leeway:

"Hayward likely moves the Cs closer to a title via his playmaking and switchability on the defensive end. Not to mention, Danny Ainge and co. should be looking for more in a potential return than just Drummond. If Cleveland wants to discuss any expanded deals that would net the Boston Celtics more immediate contributors and even additional future draft stock, perhaps there’s a very legitimate conversation to be had…"

Well, the Houdini wants to have that talk today. Here are 2 potential trade returns for Gordon Hayward to the Cavaliers for Andre Drummond…and more…
