If Boston decides to break up its core this offseason, Andy Bailey of Bleacher Report proposed the Celtics trade Jaylen Brown to the Brooklyn Nets for Cam Thomas (sign and trade), Noah Clowney, the No. 8 pick in 2025, a 2027 first-round pick (via Philadelphia) and a 2032 first-round pick.

One trade candidate to keep close tabs on if the Celtics got that route is Sam Hauser. Michael Scotto of Hoopshype reports executives around the league are keeping their eye on the sharpshooting forward as the Celtics weigh their trade options.
