Recently, a trade proposal that saw Boston send out Anfernee Simons, Sam Hauser, Georges Niang, Neemias Queta and two future first-round picks for Domantas Sabonis went viral. The fan base was split on whether that deal would be good business for the Celtics or whether that would be an overpay by the franchise.

The Boston Celtics should have their answer from one possible intriguing free agent addition in the next week according to one NBA insider. Former Clippers reserve Ben Simmons is expected to decide on his next destination within the next seven days per ESPN’s Brian Windhorst with Boston still looming as a possibility.

After falling short of capturing back-to-back titles, the Boston Celtics have gone through a complete makeover this offseason. As they continue to tinker with the roster, one mock trade surfaced where they address a key area of need.
