ESPN has lost their mind!
Reading the trade deadline article on ESPN+ and found this insane trade scenario from someone who clearly knows nothing about our team.
Boston receives: Toumani Camara
Portland receives: Jaden Springer 2025 first-round pick 2030 second-round pick
In any potential Springer trade, the Celtics should be thinking about how they can add a wing who guards multiple positions while also saving money. Camara is averaging 9.6 points and ranks in the 85th percentile in steals among wings, per Cleaning the Glass.
The Celtics are projected to spend close to $500 million next season and Camara gives them an inexpensive option. He has a $2.2 million non-guaranteed salary next season and $2.4 million team option in 2026-27. The Trail Blazers would acquire Springer with part of their $6.9 million trade exception.
