As the February 6th trade deadline inches closer, rumors are heating up. The Boston Celtics aren’t expected to make a major trade. Nonetheless, a minor trade appears to be in the cards for the Celtics ahead of the deadline. Javonte\u00a0Green<\/a> is one player who has frequently been mentioned as a Celtics trade target<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After a recent game against Green and the New Orleans Pelicans, rumors of a Green-Celtics reunion<\/a> have continued to grow. Notably, Green chipped in 10 points, four rebounds, and two steals in a one-point loss to the Celtics. His performance against the Celtics could make a trade more likely. Let’s examine the possibility of Boston trading for Green and how he would impact the team.<\/p>\n

Celtics Could Reunite With Former Wing Javonte Green at the Trade Deadline<\/h2>\n

Green spent his first two seasons with the Celtics before being traded to the Chicago Bulls in 2021. Before the Celtics-Pelicans game, Green was seen talking with his former coach, now Celtics general manager Brad Stevens. Green and Stevens’ pre-game conversation certainly adds to the trade speculation. While the two obviously didn’t discuss a trade per NBA tampering rules, it’s clear they have a good relationship, which could ultimately lead to a trade.<\/p>\n
