A month from now could one of the guards the Celtics are facing today be a teammate?

We previously wrote about the Pelicans making J.J. Redick and Lonzo Ball available in trades. We advised the Celtics not to go after Redick. Yes the name on paper sounds good, but he's old, is having a brutal year shooting, and for what he could give you offensively, you'd lose defensively. For a team that doesn't have a dominant big man enforcer and already has to hide one guard on defense on Kemba, he doesn't make sense.

Lonzo Ball was the more intriguing name, but as with everything cost would be an issue. Also the fact that Lonzo needs to ball (no relation) in his hands and how that might not be a great long term fit with the Jay's.
