Boston Celtics Receive: Victor Oladipo, PJ Tucker
Houston Rockets Receive: Robert Williams III, Aaron Nesmith, 2021 1st Round Pick
The Rockets have had players, such as PJ Tucker and Eric Gordon, who they could send away for a return. This deal would keep Gordon in town but send Tucker, along with Oladipo, out to Boston. This would fill a need for the Celtics right away.
In exchange for their new weapons, Boston will send Robert Williams III back to improve the frontcourt of Houston. The Rockets would also get a first-round pick in this year’s draft in the exchange.
Let’s take a look and see how this deal would benefit both sides as they plan to retool their franchise.
