Boston Celtics: $125 M Added for Future All-Star big man

The Kevin Durant trade saga has reached its end because the Nets owner Joe Tsai confirmed that the franchise and Durant would be going ahead with their partnership, meaning the NBA offseason can now regain its pace after slowing to a halt. Boston Celtics are still working to improve their roster before the October 18th season opener against the Philadelphia 76ers with Banner 18 being such a palpable mission for the 2022-23 season.

Pushing Al Horford to the second unit with Malcolm Brogdon and Danilo Gallinari would mean the best bench for Boston in the league by far. While letting go of Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, and Grant Williams takes away much of the team’s shooting depth, going all in on the frontcourt is the most tangible manner to fight against the likes of the Milwaukee Bucks, Toronto Raptors, and Miami Heat, who all own robust rosters with a frontcourt focus.
