To Danny Ainge, there was a simple logic to the Celtics' blockbuster trade that sent the No. 1 pick in the National Basketball Association draft to the 76ers for their third overall pick plus a future first-rounder. The trade leaves the Celtics with the No.3 overall pick this year along with a future 2018 pick (via Lakers). "They're getting the player they want", said Ainge, the Celtics' president of basketball operations. So, we know where we are, we've got pick certainty now and we can zero in on the fine details of that selection now. "It's a good deal for both teams". First, they can get Josh Jackson to be Brandon Ingram's backup at No. 3 or Jordan Clarkson's backup at No. 2. However, it doesn't really indicate if the Boston Celtics are drafting him for their roster or for another interested team.
Finally, we touch on the upcoming NBA Regular Season Awards, and how they're two months too late.
Boston at No. 3 overall is reportedly leaning toward Kansas swingman Josh Jackson, although the Celtics could trade that pick in a package for George or Chicago Bulls star Jimmy Butler. "There may be one or two franchise-level players", Colangelo said. Isaac said. "I'm not looking to gain weight the wrong way". IN will have a hard time getting anything of significant value for George, but the chance at a top-three pick in a package from the Celtics should be enticing enough to pull off the trade.

Washington point guard Markelle Fultz has always been widely regarded as the best draft prospect, who Philadelphia is now expected to pick, but Ainge indicated Monday that his team's evaluation was not so clear-cut.
"This is certainly a trade that is under the microscope more than other trades, but we're not afraid of that."And like I said, perhaps there's another move coming. Philadelphia looks to take Fultz, the Lakers will take Ball, and we are not sure what the Celtics and Phoenix will do. It was agreed to in principle at that point, with the last holdup being the customary league approval on the terms. If not, Philadelphia will send Boston either its own first-rounder in 2019 or Sacramento's first-rounder that year. "I got to spend time with [general manager] Danny Ainge, coach [Brad] Stevens and the other staff and hang out". "But we're not afraid of that". He was the top freshman scorer in the country. Then in 2013, he shipped Garnett, Pierce and Jason Terry for multiple future draft picks from there Brooklyn Nets, including the No. 1 pick that Boston won in the lottery this year. Adding Fultz to Simmons and Joel Embiid could make Philly a formidable foe against Boston for years to come. The 76ers are expected to take Washington Huskies guard Markelle Fultz with that pick in Thursday night's draft.
