<p>New year, same old <strong><a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/boston-celtics" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Boston Celtics</a>. Joe Mazzulla’s </strong>team failed to get over the hump, falling to a 0-3 hole vs. the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/miami-heat" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><strong>Miami Heat,</strong> </a>and then missing a chance to <strong>make <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/nba" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NBA</a> history </strong>in Game 7.</p>



<p>The Celtics are as talented and deep as they are inconsistent. Their issues might run deeper and some think they need to <strong>break up their elite duo</strong>, which is the only thing they have yet to try.</p>



<p>But, considering how unlikely that is at this point, let’s take a look at three low-key players they should trade for or look to sign to try and <strong>give Jaylen Brown and Jayson<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jayson-tatum" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> Tatum</a> a helping hand.</strong></p>



<h2>NBA Rumors: 3 Targets For The Celtics</h2>



<h3>3. Chris Boucher</h3>

<p><strong>Chris Boucher</strong> fell in and out of <strong>Nick Nurse’s </strong>rotation in the <strong>Toronto Raptors</strong>, but his skill set perfectly fits the Celtics’ system. Basically, he won’t hurt their offense or their defense.</p>



<p>Boucher is a solid rim protector and rebounder, just like <strong>Robert Williams III. </strong>However, he’s healthier, and he can also step up to the perimeter to knock down shots, unlike his colleague.</p>



<h3>2. Doug McDermott</h3>

<p>Perhaps, this story would’ve been different with a healthy <strong>Danilo Gallinari</strong>. But you just cannot bank your hopes on Gallinari ever being healthy, so they should look at a lite version of him.</p>



<p><strong>Doug McDermott</strong> isn’t much of a defender, but he sure can shoot the basketball. He’d give them another floor-spacer, a guy who can score at both forward spots, and another potential offensive mismatch.</p>



<h3>1. Jalen McDaniels</h3>

<p>We can all agree that the Boston Celtics don’t need to add a lot of pieces to be a legit contender. With that in mind, they could look to steal one of the most underrated players from the<strong> Philadelphia 76ers.</strong></p>



<p><strong>Jalen McDaniels </strong>would give Joe Mazzulla plenty of positional versatility, and a plus-defender at multiple spots. He can also knock down the occasional three, and he should be available at a reasonable price.</p>
