Boston Celtics
Phoenix Suns Receive: G Malcolm Brogdon, C Al Horford
Boston Celtics Receive: C Deandre Ayton
Adding Malcolm Brogdon from the Boston Celtics after acquiring Bradley Beal may seem foolish to some. The Phoenix Suns would have a lot of guards.
Still, Brogdon is a better playmaker and defender than either Booker or Beal. The Suns can make this three-guard rotation work.
Meanwhile, Boston only does this deal if they’re losing faith in Robert Williams III. If they’re concerned about his inability to stay healthy, they may want to make a move for Ayton.
If they do, it’ll be another blockbuster in what’s shaping up to be a fun summer.
