Handing out 2020 offseason grades to every team in the NBA

With training camps up and running and preseason games less than a week away, we look back at the shortened 2020 NBA offseason and hand out grades to every team.

Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics made solid moves in getting a veteran center in Tristian Thompson and a veteran point guard in Jeff Teague, but the one glare this offseason will be Gordon Hayward leaving (he was sent in a sign-and-trade to the Charlotte Hornets).

No one expected him to leave, but he did, and they will miss him next season. Hayward is a great playmaker, shooter and can get his own shot. Hayward leaving puts more pressure on Tatum and Brown who were up and down during the NBA Playoffs.
