To many, it is hard to see how Boston Celtics reserve guard Payton Pritchard will see the floor in the 2022-23 NBA season after the team added veteran floor general Malcolm Brogdon in a trade to bolster the club’s depth this offseason.
While we here at the Celtics Wire do not share that concern after having gone through the potential minutes distribution on a recent episode of the CLNS Media “Celtics Lab” podcast and coming up with nearly 15 minutes per game without much trouble, others may not come to such a favorable distribution for the former Oregon player.
If he were to languish on the bench, there is a case to trade him for a player that would fit an area of need for the team, and Bleacher Report’s Zach Buckley came up with one such deal.
