The Boston Celtics have agreed to acquire Malcolm Brogdon from the Indiana Pacers for Daniel Theis, Aaron Nesmith and a 2023 first round pick. Boston will also include Nik Stauskas, Malik Fitts and Juwan Morgan in the deal.
The Pacers have been shopping Brogdon throughout the offseason as the team acquired Tyrese Haliburton from the Sacramento Kings at the deadline.
Brogdon signed a two-year, $45 million extension with the Pacers last October, which made him ineligible to be traded until the new league calendar year.
The Celtics wanted to add “a true playmaking point guard” this offseason, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.
For the Pacers, they create enough cap space to offer a maximum contract.
