Celtics team president Brad Stevens hints Boston is potentially looking to add a big wing

The head of basketball ops noted that Boston’s situation will make such a search hard, however.

With the NBA in the thick of its annual trade season, fans of the Boston Celtics who have become accustomed to their favorite team making moves to fortify their roster in a quest for a ball club capable of winning it all may find themselves disappointed by what the Celtics do ahead of the 2024 trade deadline. But with the best record in the league and a boatload of constraints imposed by the new collective bargaining agreement (CBA), there may be little in the way of trades to be made.

Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens alluded to this while speaking to the media at practice today, hinting that Boston’s best chance to get better could be an internal process. But he also tantalized with a hint that there is one area in particular that might be improved via trade.

“Every year around this time, how do we improve to give ourselves the best chance,” asked Stevens rhetorically via NBC Boston Sports.
