Boston is pursuing a shakeup around Anfernee Simons ahead of the 2026 trade deadline, with the front office reportedly open to trade discussions through the next season. The Celtics have already explored moving reserve Georges Niang for cap relief and a two-way wing, RJ Luis Jr., in a deal that would reshape depth and shooting. If Simons moves on, Boston would likely recalibrate guard usage and shot distribution, altering fantasy value for multiple Celtics wings and veterans.

Meanwhile, Jonathan Kuminga remains a focal point in Golden State, and Al Horford’s status could hinge on that stalemate, potentially delaying a 2025 free-agent decision. The chatter around these moves signals a longer-term plan rather than a quick fix, with external talks expected to continue shaping the Celtics’ roster and cap strategy into 2026. Fantasy players should monitor updated trade talks and how a Simons landing spot would impact guard rotation, 3-point volume, and overall scoring opportunities for the Celtics.
