Celtics trade Grant Williams to Mavericks for two 2nd round picks

Two 2nd round picks for Grant Williams? Not a great return. The Celtics also get a $7 million TPE which helps to some extent. But TPE's and 2nd round picks have a lot less trade value than some people think. Put it this way, Grant Williams was drafted #22 and played well; No team would trade a future 22nd pick for a TPE and two 2nd rounders.

Grant Williams for two 2nd round picks is poor asset management https://t.co/iKZDLD78aN
