The Boston Celtics are reportedly open to trading Jaylen Brown, and plenty of teams are showing interest in the 2024 Finals MVP.
The Celtics reportedly tried trading Brown for Giannis Antetokounmpo, but failed. However, in the aftermath of that, other teams started making calls on Brown. Although Brad Stevens expressed confidence in Brown and Jayson Tatum as a duo, he left the door open for Brown to be traded during a press conference on June 23.
The Celtics are still taking calls and getting a better idea of what his trade value is. He is under contract for three more seasons and is extension-eligible. There is reportedly some belief that the Celtics are bluffing, but ESPN's Vincent Goodwill reports that the Celtics want to make a move on him "soon."
"Execs believe the Celtics are canvassing the league to figure out what Brown's true value is, as he has three years left on his contract," wrote Goodwill on Monday. "There's a small pocket of execs and agents who believe the Celtics are bluffing with Brown, but the prevailing thought is they want to move on this -- soon."
