Charania: Celtics ‘among teams interested’ in Magic’s Nikola Vucevic

Boston is reportedly among several teams considering Orlando’s Nikola Vucevic as a trade target.

The Boston Celtics reportedly have interest in more than just Detroit Piston forward Jerami Grant, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, with Boston ‘among teams interested’ in Orlando Magic big man Nikola Vucevic.

The two-time All-Star is having an outstanding season with the Magic in 2020-21, putting up 24.5 points, 11.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and a steal per game while shooting 48.3% from the field and 41.8 percent from beyond the arc. The Swiss big man has quietly been putting together one of the better offensive seasons in the league, and thus would likely come at a high cost in any trade.
