Will a new double big lineup unlock Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown?

Could the Boston Celtics’ acquisition of Kristaps Porzingis via the Marcus Smart trade bring the Celtics back to making regular use of a double-big lineup the team deployed under former head coach Ime Udoka?

If they did, would it benefit their two star forwards, Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown?

In the most recent episode of the CLNS Media “Celtics Beat” podcast, Steve Bulpett from Heavy Sports explores the possibility of the Celtics making the decision to revert to a double-big lineup again with hosts Adam Kaufman and Evan Valenti hearing out his case.

Bulpett articulates how returning to a two big lineup, notably with the entry of Kristaps Porzingis, can benefit Tatum and Brown on both ends of the court.

To hear more about why this might be the case for Boston next season, check out the clip embedded above.
