5 Teams that could steal Anthony Edwards during his prime
By Tyler Watts
4. Boston Celtics
The Celtics have been to the conference finals five times in the last seven years, but cannot get over the hump and win their 18th championship. Their last title came in 2008, and it is their only one since 1986. Boston shook things up this summer by trading Marcus Smart and acquiring Kristaps Porzingis, but was that enough to bring a title back to Beantown?
The Celtics are currently built around two star wings, but they have tried to trade Jaylen Brown in the past. Yes, the 27-year-old just signed a supermax extension, but Boston could split them up after a couple more failures.
The Celtics would have to seriously consider trading up to Anthony Edwards, especially if they were his desired destination. Ant-Man would take his career to another level by helping the iconic Boston Celtics win their 18th championship. It would be a legend-making move and something that improves his Hall of Fame and all-time great cases.
Anthony Edwards might have larger markets in mind. It is one thing to win a title in Boston, but Ant-Man is a box office star. If he decides to leave Minnesota, does the 6’4 wing chase history with an iconic franchise or star power in a place like Madison Square Garden?
