The Boston Celtics arrived into the Giannis Antetokounmpo late in the process, and they even nearly pulled off a trade for the Milwaukee Bucks megastar. It was reported that Boston offered star wing Jaylen Brown along with multiple first-round picks for Antetokounmpo before the Bucks ultimately sent him to the Miami Heat.
Now, all eyes are on the Celtics and Brown as a potential trade still looms. After comments that Brown made after the season, and now reporting that he has been thrown in trade talks, those rumors will only heat up. Before the NBA Draft on Tuesday, ESPN NBA insider Shams Charania reported that the Celtics are still dangling Brown in trade talks around the league.

“Sources tell me that even after the failed trade of Giannis and the Celtics, the team has engaged and listened on trade conversations and offers around Jaylen Brown, even today,” Charania said. “Teams I’ve spoken to feel like there is a level of intention behind this with the Celtics, but that doesn’t mean a trade will necessarily happen.”
