5 ways Celtics could improve lineup without trading Jaylen Brown

Celtics, Pistons Considering Jaylen Brown For Jalen Duren Trade

The Boston Celtics and Detroit Pistons are considering a Jaylen Brown trade that would involve Jalen Duren being the centerpiece of the deal on a sign-and-trade. The Pistons have entered the offseason aggressively looking to add a shot creator beside Cade Cunningham with Austin Reaves, Tyler Herro, Norman Powell and Coby White as potential targets. Reaves and White have already agreed to re-sign with their incumbent teams. Meanwhile, the Pistons and Duren have been far apart on contract talks, which has led to the expectation that the All-NBA big man would explore his options in restricted free agency. In 70 regular season games, Duren averaged 19.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists in 28.2 minutes with a PER of 25.8. But in 14 playoff games, Duren averaged just 10.2 points, 8.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists with a PER of 14.3. The Celtics are prioritizing getting bigger and more versatile this offseason following their first round exit to the Philadelphia 76ers. Boston previously offered Brown in a package to the Milwaukee Bucks for Giannis Antetokounmpo.
