Do the Celtics need to make a move before the NBA trade deadline? Chris Forsberg lays out Brad Stevens' realistic options before Feb. 6.
The Boston Celtics, already over the second apron, have very limited options to make a move before the 2025 NBA trade deadline. In most mock trades, Jaden Springer is a fixture in such scenarios.
Boston nearly pulled off a great win, but fell for the seventh time this season after leading by at least 10 points.
While the Celtics are still adamant that everything will be fine, this is now more than a blip. They've been playing .500 ball for over a month, and have often looked out of sync
This latest trade proposal sees Boston shake things up and ship out their veteran guard and champion, Jrue Holiday, for two players they could use to help them depth-wise. This trade idea, proposed by Matt Levine of Celtics on SI, is a three-team deal between the Celtics, Toronto Raptors, and Memphis Grizzlies.
The Celtics expected to be down two rotation players in their matchup with the Rockets. Minutes before tipoff, they learned they’d actually be missing three.
Jaylen Brown scored 25 points, Jayson Tatum added 24 and the Boston Celtics rallied past the Los Angeles Clippers 117-113 in overtime when both teams were missing key players.
The Celtics played without Derrick White, Sam Hauser and Al Horford, giving an opportunity for players deeper on Boston’s bench to shore up the rotation. Despite plenty of mixing and matching by Mazzulla against an elite opponent, the results were largely underwhelming.

The shorthanded Celtics put up a good fight in a 114-112 loss to the Rockets on Monday night but last minute defensive blunders ultimately cost Boston the win. Plenty of attention will be paid to the miscues that Joe Mazzulla took responsibility for in the final ten seconds of the setback but there was much more to Monday’s defeat than those crunch time issues.
