Finding the missing piece: Backup bigs for Boston to bring in

Earlier this week, the Athletic’s Shams Charania broke the earth-shattering news that he expects the Celtics to be “active in the trade market as we get closer to February, to try to see if they can beef up their bench rotation.”

Jokes aside, it’s hard to tell if Charania is basing that assertion on actual reporting or speculation, since he didn’t specify – but there is improvement to be made at the end of Boston’s roster. (Maybe he read my piece on defensive guards the Celtics could target from last week.)

In that article, I discussed a potential Alex Caruso trade as well as two players who might be more likely targets based on what Boston can use to make a deal.
