BREAKING NEWS: Celtics Trade for Evan Fournier

Views 1

The Boston Celtics are finalizing a deal to acquire Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier for two second-round picks ahead of today's trade deadline. John Zannis and Bobby Manning break down the move and what else is still on the table for Celtics.

The Celtics will pair Fournier with Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown and Marcus Smart on the wing in Boston under Brad Stevens and be asked to contribute heavily as a ball-handler Jeff Teague gone, along with Daniel Theis and Javonte Green. The Magic took back two second rounders and Teague, making the price for Fournier minimal as Danny Ainge's top Trade Deadline addition. The pressure on Robert Williams III increases with Theis gone and Tristan Thompson out. The Celtics ultimately missed out on a bigger trade for Aaron Gordon, who was sent to the Nuggets in a trade for RJ Hampton.
