Boston Celtics
While the Magic have been relatively disappointing this season, the Boston Celtics have been the complete opposite. Boston has been better than many predicted, led by the continued development of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, and the excellent play and leadership of Kemba Walker.
Don’t forget that the team is still awaiting the return of a consistent Gordon Hayward, and Marcus Smart has missed time due to injury too. Brad Stevens has been sensational this season, and this team has his fingerprints all over it.
Though, the team could use another star. Jrue Holiday is the perfect player to fit the mold too. He’s a two-way player that would fit right into Stevens’ philosophy and could help eliminate some of the defensive issues that Kemba faces at times.
The Celtics could move Brown to the 3 and bring Hayward off the bench (when he returns). Of course, the big issue is that adding a talent such as Holiday could be costly. And knowing the Celtics’ greedy history, who knows if they’d be truly willing to go all-in for Jrue Holiday.
