The NBA offseason has been buzzing with speculation following a blockbuster trade between the Orlando Magic and Memphis Grizzlies, which sent Desmond Bane to Orlando in exchange for multiple first-round picks, along with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Cole Anthony. This has raised eyebrows in the league, particularly for Boston Celtics' Brad Stevens, who is reportedly assessing his own roster moves.

As the Celtics face the constraints of the luxury tax, trading Derrick White has become a focal point. While many consider it a long shot for the Celtics to move Jaylen Brown, the potential return on White could resemble the package the Grizzlies received for Bane. White, who averages 16.4 points and is valued at $128 million over four years, might fetch a decent return, though it won’t match Bane’s value due to his age and contract. The Celtics may need to strike while the iron is hot, looking for quality players and draft picks.
