The Boston Celtics may be considering a trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo, with reports of interest emerging from last season. Senior Athletic reporter Sam Amick suggests that the Celtics' postseason performance could increase their willingness to pursue star players.
Should the Boston Celtics be interested in trading for Milwaukee Bucks star forward Giannis Antetokounmpo? To senior Athletic reporter Sam Amick, the answer seems to be that they might be already. The Athletic reporter points to reports of Boston looking into what a trade for the Bucks star might look like last season, and despite reports that this interest was 'cursory,' Amick thinks there might be more there than meets the denial.
"There were signs of interest at the February trade deadline, and it would stand to reason that the postseason finish only increases the odds that the Celtics will consider anything and everything when it comes to star players," suggests the Athletic reporter. "Don’t forget about the random praise that Antetokounmpo heaped upon Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla back in early April while discussing the Bucks’ struggles."
"But (Jaylen) Brown’s comments, not surprisingly, added fuel to this fire around the Association," he added, referring to the Georgia native's recent post-series loss to the Philadelphia 76ers.
The Celtics may trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo to enhance their chances of becoming a true contender, especially after his positive remarks about their coach.
Jaylen Brown's comments following the Celtics' playoff loss added fuel to speculation about the team's interest in Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Reports of the Celtics looking into a trade for Giannis surfaced last season, particularly around the February trade deadline.
