WATCH: What would it take to get the Sacramento Kings’ De’Aaron Fox to the Boston Celtics?

If Boston wanted an upgrade at the point, would Fox make sense? And what would it likely take?

The Boston Celtics need to make changes to move closer to being a true contender, and many analysts believe the missing piece for the team is a true floor general in the mold of a Rajon Rondo or Bob Cousy.

One such prospective trade target is De’Aaron Fox of the Sacramento Kings, who has hinted at the prospect of a change for himself as well.

What would it take to get Fox to the Celtics before the end of the 2021-22 NBA trade deadline? Is there a path to convince the Kings what Boston has on its roster and in its coffers is worth swapping for in a deal that could conceivably make both teams better off in the long run?

The hosts of the CLNS Media podcast “Celtics Beat” Adam Kaufman and Evan Valenti recently dived into such a debate with guest Sean Deveney of Heavy.com, weighing the pros and cons of such a proposition against its plausibility.

Watch the clip embedded above to see their perspective on what it might take to get such a deal done, and whether it makes sense for the Celtics.
