Recently, a trade proposal that saw Boston send out Anfernee Simons, Sam Hauser, Georges Niang, Neemias Queta and two future first-round picks for Domantas Sabonis went viral. The fan base was split on whether that deal would be good business for the Celtics or whether that would be an overpay by the franchise.

The Boston Celtics are in desperate need of frontcourt help amid their retooling effort and could turn to another Eastern Conference team to strike a deal. The Celtics traded away star center Kristaps Porzingis in a cost-cutting move this offseason and are also expected to lose Al Horford in free agency.
