The Boston Celtics have reportedly traded Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers, according to multiple reports. The trade includes Paul George and draft picks.
The deal sends Brown, a former Finals MVP, to Philadelphia after ten seasons with Boston, as reported by CBS Sports. In exchange for Brown, the Celtics will receive Paul George, two first-round picks, and two second-round picks, sources told ESPN's Shams Charania on Wednesday.
Fox News reports that this is considered a “blockbuster” NBA deal. Sporting News noted that the trade comes as Boston did not acquire Giannis Antetokounmpo and marks a breaking up of their core team.
The reasons behind the Celtics’ decision to trade Brown are being discussed, with some suggesting it was a strategic move for future gains. CBS News initially reported that Jaylen Brown is done with the Boston Celtics.
