Every summer, the Boston Celtics find themselves being linked with a disgruntled superstar. Last year it was Kevin Durant. This season, it’s Damian Lillard. However, Lillard has made his desire to join the Miami Heat very clear, despite the Portland Trail Blazers holding out for better offers from elsewhere.
The Celtics will always be viewed as a potential trade partner because of their ability to offer Jaylen Brown as part of the deal. Nevertheless, there is no reliable reporting linking Boston with a potential move for Lillard. Yet, even if the Celtics did have interest in the All-Star guard, it would appear Jayson Tatum doesn’t have anything to do with recruiting new players to Boston.
