Detroit adds Brogdon to a new starting 5 of Ivey/Brogdon/Cunningham/Bogdanovic and Duren or Wiseman. Stewart is a bit superfluous with 3 other young bigs they are trying to develop in Duren, Wiseman, and Bagley. Brogdon, like Bogdanovic, provides shooting, veteran savvy, and leadership to help their other young pieces like Cunningham and Ivey develop.

The Celtics save a little $ on this deal. Burks would combine with Pritchard to replace most (not all) of Brogdon's production at the backup guard spots. Stewart provides solid big man insurance for Al and Rob.
