The Atlanta Hawks just traded Trae Young for CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert. No draft capital involved. It looks like the Memphis Grizzlies could end up trading Ja Morant. Plus, Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball just came off the bench. Things aren’t looking great there, either.
It has never been more obvious that the Boston Celtics have built their team the correct way. They found stars that play both sides of the ball, role players that play both sides of the ball, and a GM and coach who value that. In today’s NBA, that’s more important than ever, which the Hawks, Grizzlies, and Hornets are learning in real-time.
