Entering the final year of his two-year, $60 million contract, Kristaps Porzingis is widely viewed as a potential trade candidate for the Boston Celtics. The talented big man has struggled for health throughout his tenure on Joe Mazzulla’s team, and with Jayson Tatum ruled out for the foreseeable future, now could be the perfect time to begin looking elsewhere.

When healthy, Porzingis is still one of the most talented centers in the NBA. He’s an elite rim protector, floor spacer and post scorer. He can also attack off the drive, work out of the dunker spot, and fill multiple roles on defense. You can’t rely on him to be in the rotation when you need him most.

Simone and LaFrance discussed the pros and cons of each potential destination, while also touching on what each trade package could look like.
