Boston Celtics

Why:

A Jaylen Brown trade would be good for both sides, depending on what they're getting back. They would want a good contending package back and I think this could be it. A scoring partner of Ingram next to Tatum might be what they need as a JB replacement as theres not a lot of players who can do that. Obviously Ingram isn't as good but I think he could still be a good replacemtn as a duo partner for Tatum. They also get JRich whos could be a good guard for them since they could maybe use one if they were to trade JB.

Ideal Starting 5

Smart/Brogdon/BI/Tatum/RobWill

Ideal Bench

White/JRich/Gallo/Horford/Kornet

New Orleans Pelicans

Why:

A guy like Jaylen Brown I'd say could be a perfect fit for NOLA. Him and CJ could be a great fit so I think he could be a great fit overall. Losing their starting SF could be bad but they have guys like Trey Murphy and Herb Jones so it would be fine. Those picks are also kind of valuable to them but getting a guy like JB for that package is fine for me at least. Losing JRich is also kinda bad but for a guy like Jaylen is fine I'd say.

Ideal Starting 5

CJ/Brown/Murphy/Zion/Val

Ideal Bench

Alvarado/Jones/Marshall/NanceJr/Muscala
