The Celtics don't see reconciliation with Jaylen Brown as an impossible goal even after putting him in trade talks, per @TheSteinLine

Who says no?
- Celtics get a young 3/D big wing in Trey Murphy, great defender in Herb Jones, emerging young big in Walker Kessler, an unprotected 1st from Minnesota (via Utah) as maybe LaMelo is a disaster, and a 2028 swap
- Pels get Lauri + two 2nds
- Jazz get Jaylen Brown
The Pelicans should be viewed as one of the more realistic suitors for Jaylen Brown.
If Boston continues to engage teams, New Orleans could offer multiple starting-level impact players, including Trey Murphy III, and first-round draft compensation for the Celtics star.
