Orlando Magic has demanded two first-round picks for Gordon who still has one more year left in his four-year deal worth $80 million. While other teams feel the asking price is too high but Celtics who are currently 21-22 in the season feel he is the prime player for them.

Gordon is averaging 14.7 points and 6.8 rebounds per game this season at Celtics he could make $18.1 million. As for Fournier, Orlando is pushing Marcus Smart as well but the Celtics are skeptical of the deal but are interested in Fournier alone. The trade deadline is near and the Celtics need to decide quickly.
