We may be a bit disappointed the Celtics didn’t land a top 2 pick in the draft, but Chris Mannix believes the Cs have enough assets to score an established player.
I missed the actual interview on Toucher and Rich but I believe the asset package centered around the 3rd pick in 2016, 2017 1st rounder and Jae Crowder. I would include those assets (and more) in any deal for George and Cousins. I wouldn’t feel the need to sweeten the pot anymore for Butler.
