Boston Celtics: 3 blockbuster trades to land starting point guard
By Jack Simone
If there’s one thing Boston Celtics fans love about the offseason, it’s trade rumors. Whether the deal is supposed to be big or small, trades are always entertaining.
Well with the financial restrictions the C’s are dealing with, making the right trades will be crucial. Brad Stevens has a tall task ahead of him.
Most of the trades that could be made are more than likely going to be small deals to improve the bench. However, there’s always the chance that Stevens pulls off something big.
There are big-time names around the league who could be available this offseason. Boston could find themselves in a position to make some offers.
Obviously, the main position of need for the C’s is point guard, but talent is talent. If they can add talent at any position Stevens should jump at the opportunity.
At this point, picks are not nearly as valuable to Boston. With Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown good enough to win now, the team can look to trade some of their draft capital.
On top of that, the C’s certainly have enough young assets to entice rebuilding teams. If the goal is to win immediately, guys such as Romeo Langford and Aaron Nesmith could be on the block.
Even Robert Williams could be made available if the right trade presents itself. With Moses Brown as insurance, trading Williams wouldn’t be the end of the world.
The key in all of the madness, however, will be getting the most value back to Boston. Here are three realistic blockbuster trades the Boston Celtics could make this offseason.
