NBA Trade Rumors: 3 teams that should target Jae Crowder

Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics are another team that would make some sense for Jae Crowder, and he has some familiarity with the franchise. He spent three years with the Celtics already during the 2014-16 seasons. But it’s more than the familiarity for Crowder. It’s the fact that the Celtics could really use some added depth in the frontcourt.

Boston will be starting the season without Robert Williams and Danilo Gallinari is slated to miss the entire 2022-23 NBA season. Al Horford and Grant Williams will have their hands full in the frontcourt and they’ll likely also rely on playing Jayson Tatum there too.

If the Celtics could add a versatile wing like Crowder, it could help Boston mightily until Williams can return from his injury. The Celtics very well may be willing to be patient at the start of the season but Crowder would help alleviate a lot of this team’s current issues.
