I’ll be honest, I don’t really understand this.
Why would you draft Jacob Gonzalez 15th overall, spend several years developing him, and see him show signs of improvement only to trade him for the 34th pick?
I just don’t get it.
The Celtics are banking on Payton Pritchard making a Jalen Brunson-type leap, per @tomhaberstroh
“The Celtics trading [Jaylen] Brown is a bet that [Payton] Pritchard is their in-house version of New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson, a diminutive player who didn’t fully show his talents until Luka Dončić was out of the picture.”
