The Boston Celtics have long been linked with Bradley Beal due to his relationship with Jayson Tatum, but they’re not believed to be a realistic trade candidate with the Washington Wizards right now.
The Celtics are believed to be prioritizing signing Jaylen Brown to a supermax contract this offseason.
“My feel from talking to sources is that the Celtics are not necessarily in on this one,” said Brian Windhorst. “Their intention is to get Jaylen Brown on a contract extension this year. Even if they got Jaylen Brown done, the idea of bringing in Bradley Beal would be extraordinarily difficult because of the three contracts together.
“I don’t think any conversation that involves trading Jaylen Brown is something the Celtics are super interested in right now.”
