    I don’t understand this trade at all…maybe it’ll make more sense in the next day or two, but it feels like Celtics traded away Smart for very little despite it being a good draft year.

      The Celtics didn’t have a 1st round draft pick this year so I don’t think the quality of the draft class factors much into it. But who knows? Maybe they’ll find a diamond in the rough with the Grizzlies 2023 and 2024 pick.
