I love grant. He is a very high level role player. But he was often the 8th man in an 8ish man rotation. With the emergence of hauser and the hopeful return of gallo, the Celtics need a center-big more than a wing-big. Celtics take a high level gamble on rehabbing Isaac to be that guy now and into the future.

Magic get 3pt shooters that they super need who have more playoff experience than the entire magic team, twice over. It’s easy to clown grant but he is a really good basketball player and gms know that more than trolls on twitter. Magic reportedly have an interest in grant and can afford to meet the price that the Celtics aren’t gonna match while keeping a ton of cap space open. Not to mention, Isaac just honestly doesn’t fit anymore.
