The Boston Celtics might have some new trade targets on the horizon in the short-term future based on some new reporting from The Athletic’s Shams Charania. The NBA insider revealed on Tuesday afternoon that the Indiana Pacers were considering a rebuild, and “receptive to trade talks on Caris LeVert, Domantas Sabonis, (and), Myles Turner”.
“In need of a new direction amid a 10-16 start to the season, the Indiana Pacers are moving toward a substantial rebuild and are expected to open up trade conversations around some of their veteran stalwarts,” writes Charania, several of whom could potentially appeal to the Celtics.
Boston fans hoping to pry star point guard Malcolm Brogdon free from the Pacers will have to wait until the offseason given he is ineligible to be traded this season due to league rules related to his recent extension, however, as The Athletic analyst notes.
The Globe’s Gary Washburn believes it is easier than some might think. https://t.co/D4gWGChYet
