Boston Celtics Receive: Al Horford, 2023 1st Round Pick (via DEN)

OKC Thunder Receive: Romeo Langford, Carsen Edwards, Aaron Nesmith

Al Horford would be an immediate upgrade for the Boston Celtics down low. It is all about if they want to take on his contract. The Thunder would also send the Celtics a first-round pick in 2023. Oklahoma City has a ton of draft capital they could use in a deal like this one.

Boston has plenty of assets to send away. They are full of young players with high ceilings in the league. This means Romeo Langford, Carsen Edwards, and Aaron Nesmith could be on the move.

The Celtics have an overabundance of young players, particularly out on the perimeter. Facing a need at the center position in order to contend, Boston would benefit from consolidating some of their roster in order to bring back a talent like Horford.

Let’s take a closer look and see how this deal would benefit both sides right away this season.
