The folks over at HoopsHype have an eye on the trade value of every player in the league. And they have put that to work in creating the fifth edition of their trade value ranking series that they released earlier this week, which of course features a number of prominent players from the Boston Celtics’ roster now that we have made it to about the quarter-point of the 2022-23 season.
Focusing only on the top 100 such players in the league, the panel of H/H analysts assembled their list of the very best trade targets the NBA has to offer by combing over a series of “factors such as talent, performance, age, availability, positional scarcity, current salary, and what their next contract could look like” to come to their conclusions.
Let’s dive into where the four Celtics that made the latest final cut of H/H’s top 100 trade value rankings landed.
This is every player in Boston’s history who wore the Celtics’ No. 50 jersey for at least one game as of Oct. 2022. https://t.co/fUR6Npk9J2
