To Beal, or not to Beal? That is the question: Does a trade for the Washington Wizards star make sense for Boston?

While some Boston Celtics fans may hope for significant additions to the team this offseason, a step back in overall talent is more likely.

The potential pairing of Jayson Tatum and Bradley Beal may be enticing after the news the Washington Wizards are trying to find the former Florida player a new home. But the cap complexities involved in making such a trade happen are not simple. It would require a package that might involve Jaylen Brown, and such a deal would create challenges for the team to fill out the rest of the roster.
