The Boston celtics enter a bridge year of sorts with superstar Jayson Tatum set to spend most, if not all, of the season recovering from a torn Achilles. The impact of that has already been seen in the form of the fire sale from the franchise this week. Both Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis have been traded in order shed salary and alleviate Boston's cap sheet. Even despite those moves rumors continue to swirl about possible big changes for the Celtics, especially in regard to Jaylen Brown and Derrick White.
Brown and White are the two best players left on the roster other than Tatum and trading their contracts would grant the Celtics significant financial flexibility. There have been multiple reports surrounding both players suggesting other teams are very interested in the two. On Wednesday, entering the NBA draft, two top ESPN NBA insiders weighed in on whether Boston really would trade its remaining stars.
