Ahead of the Feb. 10 NBA trade deadline this week, one team to keep an eye on is the Boston Celtics. With a record of 30-25 and the need to shed salary, they could be looking to make a move before Thursday.
Matt Moore of The Action Network recently reported that one player they could look to trade is guard Dennis Schroder.
Moore reports that Boston’s priority is to clear salary to save on the luxury tax, with Schroder being a feasible way to do just that. He says there are two offers on the table for the veteran guard, one from the Milwaukee Bucks and another from the Chicago Bulls.
Both the Bucks and Bulls are among the best Eastern Conference teams and could use another scoring punch to further strengthen their respective bench units.
On the season, Schroder is averaging 14.4 points, 4.3 assists and 3.3 rebounds per contest. A microwave scorer, it would be interesting to see what Boston could get in return for the veteran point guard.
