WATCH: Are Jerami Grant or Andre Drummond realistic options for Celtics?

Wading through the smokescreens in silly season sometimes requires professional help.

With two weeks to go to the 2021 NBA trade deadline, the rumors, speculation (and for some, irritation) is rising to a fever pitch. With the Boston Celtics having a $28.5 million traded player exception at their disposal to make a significant move at the deadline, the noise is especially loud for Celtics fans.

But what rumors are real — and more importantly, realistic? It’s one thing if Boston has interest in a player, but another entirely if there’s a shot of prying him loose. And not every player frequently mentioned in Celtics trade conversation makes sense, rumored or not.

With that in mind, the CLNS “A-List” podcast does its best to answer these questions, notably about Jerami Grant of the Detroit Pistons.
