Malcolm Brogdon

Brad Stevens apparently isn't done revamping the Celtics' roster. Boston has reportedly acquired Malcolm Brogdon from the Indiana Pacers for Aaron Nesmith, ...

Could a move involving Smart be on the horizon? Brogdon averaged 19.1 points, 5.9 assists and 5.1 rebounds in 36 games last season. Shortly after agreeing to terms with forward Danilo Gallinari, they reportedly acquired point guard Malcolm Brogdon in a trade with the Indiana Pacers.

Indiana is receiving center Daniel Theis, wing Aaron Nesmith, and a 2023 first-round pick.

In addition to clearing some long-term money, the Pacers now have about $31MM in projected cap room this summer, tweets Marks. The Celtics wanted to acquire a “true play-making guard,” Wojnarowski explains ( via Twitter), and were able to do so without including any of their core players in the package. Washington addressed its point guard hole by agreeing to acquire Monte Morris and sign Delon Wright, while New York landed Jalen Brunson in free agency. That opened the door for another Eastern Conference club to make a deal with the Pacers. The Pacers, meanwhile, had interest in Grant Williams, according to Jake Fischer of Bleacher Report ( Twitter link), but were ultimately willing to accept for a Celtics’ 2023 first-round pick that could land pretty late in the 20s. The deal will send center Daniel Theis, wing Aaron Nesmith, and a 2023 first-round pick to Indiana, Wojnarowski reports ( via Twitter). Nik Stauskas, Malik Fitts, and Juwan Morgan are also headed to the Pacers in the swap, Wojnarowski adds ( via Twitter).

Brogdon joins a talented, young team who won the Eastern Conference this past season.

NBA DPOY Marcus Smart along with Brown and Tatum should mean that Brogdon doesn’t always have to guard the opposing team’s best player — like he often had to in Indiana — but can focus more on team defense and his offensive game. Brogdon will have some of the playmaking weight lifted from his shoulders with the presence of Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown while his defensive mentality fits well with Boston’s dominant play on that side of the ball. That allowed the Boston Celtics to, reportedly, swoop in and acquire Brogdon via the Pacers.

The 2017 Kia Rookie of the Year is headed to Boston in exchange for a 1st-round pick and a handful of players.

Theis is a valuable rebounder and low-post defender who averaged 8.2 ppg and 4.9 rpg while proving to be a useful rotation player for Boston during the 2022 playoffs. A former Kia Rookie of the Year, Brogdon averaged 19.1 points, 5.9 assists, and 5.1 rebounds with Indiana last season, though injuries limited him to 36 games. • Malcolm Brogdon

The Indiana Pacers are trading Malcolm Brogdon to the Boston Celtics, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Brogdon, 29, is a six-foot-five point guard who averaged 19.1 points, 5.9 assists and 5.1 rebounds while shooting 44.8 per cent from the floor last season. On the Pacers side of things, they've added a third first-round pick in 2023 as the club continues its rebuild process. The Celtics have wanted a playmaking point guard dating back to last season, but ultimately handed the starting role to Marcus Smart.

Y ese modo "ganar ahora" queda demostrado con el último movimiento del mercado: los verdes acordaron un traspaso con Indiana Pacers para hacerse con Malcolm ...

Si bien ha tenido problemas físicos en los últimos años, Brogdon ha demostrado ser un base completamente sólido, con capacidad defensiva y resolutivo desde todo punto de vista. Boston Celtics quiere demostrar que su reciente llegada a las Finales (derrota ante Golden State Warriors) no se trata de una cuestión pasajera, sino que el proyecto está en un momento ambicioso. Sin dudas, una victoria desde lo deportivo para los de Udoka, que suman una pieza de valor para acoplar a la estructura.

A cambio, los Pacers reciben a Daniel Theis, Aaron Neismith, Nik Stauskas, Malik Fitts, Juwan Morgan y una elección de primera ronda en 2023. De esta forma los ...

El traspaso no se podrá llevar a cabo oficialmente hasta el próximo 9 de julio por exigencias del conrrato de Juwan Morgan. Al ya ex de los Pacers le restan tres años de contrato a 22,5 millones de dólares de media por año. De esta forma los de Ime Udoka refuerzan notablemente una posición de base con la que vienen sufriendo en tiempos recientes.

Los Boston Celtics comienzan julio con fuerza. Poco después de llegar a un acuerdo con el alero Danilo Gallinari, supuestamente adquirieron al armador ...

The Celtics acquired playmaking point guard Malcom Brogdon in a trade with the Pacers without having to give up a core player, sources told ESPN.

And to change significant pieces in the group doesn't mean that that might not totally take your identity and shift it in a direction that's not as successful. I think the way teams work together and operate together are fragile. "I think teams are fragile. ... We have to make sure that we continue to play with pace. "... But there's no question, in this league, the more guys that can make a play offensively, the better. When we are at our best, we play with pace.

Nik Stauskas, a 6-6, 205-pound wing, is a Pacers for the second time though he didn't appear in a game after he was traded here in a salary dump by Houston in 2019. After the Pacers traded two-time All-Star Domantas Sabonis to the Kings in a package for budding star point guard Tyrese Haliburton last season, Brogdon was understandably the odd man out. Ayton, 23, averaged 17.2 points and 10.2 rebounds per game last season. Players and teams can still change their minds and call off deals during this period. INDIANAPOLIS — Trade rumors hovered over Malcolm Brogdon since the season ended, and now he has a new home. Haliburton averaged 18.6 points and 10.1 assists in 18 games without Brogdon compared to 14.9 points and 8.5 assists with Brogdon. The 22-year-old also shot better from the field (50.9% vs.

The Celtics were said to be looking to land a "true playmaking point guard." They got that in Malcolm Brogdon.

$22.5 million $22.5 million He's struggled with injuries for much of his career but has proven to be a solid two-way player when healthy, posting averages of 18.9 points, 6.3 assists and 5.1 rebounds per game over the last three seasons.

As the Indiana Pacers turn the page towards a new future, we examine four ideal Malcolm Brogdont trades they should pursue.

The team has tried to get a strong point guard that can play alongside Mitchell. If Conely has a bounce-back year, he can be traded for more assets that fit the Pacers’ long-term goals. Utah gets Brogdon in return for local hometown-grown Conley. Brogdon is a younger and bigger player than either Conely or Mitchell. He can do some similar things to Conely and Brogdon can play alongside another superstar. As a result, it has the opportunity to play these two players and see if they can be a part of the future. While Toronto is more likely to be interested in acquiring Turner, there can be a case for them to add Brogdon. Here Brogdon can either start with Fred VanVleet or play alongside Gary Trent Jr. Here is a team that might surprise you on the list. If it takes him to reach the next level then the Pacers have a nice guard and big man pairing in Haliburton and Ayton. Phoenix gets a vital upgrade with their third guard. With Bertans, the hope is he can regain his 3-point shooting stroke and then be flipped at the deadline. It’s not a sexy deal but it does free up minutes in the backcourt for rookies Benedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard. With Malcolm Brogdon seemingly no longer a fit for the team’s long-term vision, we’ll four trades the Pacers could pursue to deal him. In this scenario, Indiana also deals Myles Turner to another team to open up the center spot. Indiana is hitting the reset button.

He was the first non-first-round pick to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award in the common draft era. See Boston.com.

After playing 75 games in his rookie season, he missed 30 games with a partially torn left quadriceps tendon. He led the Cavaliers to the Elite Eight in the NCAA tournament before a loss to Syracuse denied them a trip to the Final Four. Brogdon, who will turn 30 in December, averaged 19.1 points, 5.9 assists, and 5.1 rebounds for the Pacers last season and is signed through the 2024-25 season. In his third year in 2018-19, he missed the end of the regular season and the first round of the playoffs with a plantar fascia tear in his right foot. He was the first non-first-round pick to win the award in the common draft era. He was the first non-first-round pick to win the NBA Rookie of the Year award in the common draft era.

For weeks, it has been clear that Malcolm Brogdon's days with the Indiana Pacers were numbered. It wasn't a question of if, but when he would be traded.

With Brogdon in the fold, Boston should be an early favorite to defend their title as Eastern Conference Champions. The Celtics have a strong roster, with two budding superstars in Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown along with a host of quality role players. That is a role Malcolm Brogdon should be able to fill for them.

History says Indiana will choose the former, even if the team doesn't pursue Ayton, and try to regain its status as one of the most consistent franchise's in the NBA. In a trade last season that sent Caris LeVert from the Pacers to the Cavs, Indiana received Cleveland's 2022 lottery protected first-round pick. Chase the playoffs now to quickly move on from one of the worst seasons in franchise history? The 23-year-old center was drafted first overall by the Suns in 2018, though he's expected to part ways with them since they won't offer him a max deal. 8.5) and shot better from the field and 3-point line in 18 games without Brogdon compared to eight games with him. Haliburton's made it clear that it's his team, and there's no question he's ready for the expectations that come with that.

One of the most notable trades of the NBA offseason so far was centered around former Virginia men's basketball star Malcolm Brogdon.

He captioned the post "One goal" with a trophy emoji: The defending Eastern Conference Champions will be an early favorite to make a return trip to the NBA Finals next season as they managed to land Brogdon while keeping their core of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, Al Horford, Robert Williams, as well as several key role players on the roster. We've collected some of the reactions from social media:

"The Pacers could have done better here, but they're on their way to living in the depths of the lottery, and that's how they choose to reset."

Theis could get flipped, but if not, he’s a fine placeholder while the Pacers rebuild," Huff wrote. This was a decent enough move (albeit unspectacular) to get them where they want to go." Trades are complex negotiations and I’m sure they canvassed the league looking for some combination of young talent and draft capital," Pina wrote. The team found a deal they liked now, and moved on it. It also gives the Pacers enough cap space to sign a max-contract player in free agency. Waiting for the trade deadline could've helped, but it also might've backfired," he wrote.

Brad Stevens is headed for the honor roll. The Celtics deal for Malcolm Brogdon is receiving high grades from outlets that grade trades.

The potential problem, of course, is his availability (or lack thereof). He’s averaged fewer than 50 games a season with Indiana. They’re not positioned to truly contend as currently constructed, so they get a first-rounder back in exchange for a veteran player who probably didn’t have a long-term future with the franchise. This move is a no-brainer for the Celtics, who get a legitimate playoff rotation piece in Brogdon in exchange for proverbial pennies. Synopsis: “The fact the Celtics were able to add two proven veterans in Brogdon, 29, and Gallinari, 33, without having to part with any of their core pieces is a major coup for them. It’s an ideal addition to a team that wanted more offensive punch without having to sacrifice anything on the defensive end (their great strength and fundamental identity).” Although this deal doesn’t yield the kind of draft-pick compensation the Pacers were probably hoping for, I understand getting value for Brogdon while it’s there.”

Malcolm Brogdon adds depth to the Celtics' backcourt, but it also gives head coach Ime Udoka a decision to make with Marcus Smart.

He welcomed both Brogdon and forward Danilo Gallinari to the squad via Twitter on Friday. "I think what Marcus Smart does on the defensive end is invaluable, so you can't have him on the bench in crunch time because he's going to have to guard the best perimeter player on the other team. I think adding these pieces, you have an opportunity for these guys to show up.

Boston's trade for the combo guard left people wondering if he would become the team's starting point guard. Read more on Boston.com.

That group didn’t have as high of a net rating in the playoffs, posting a 3.5 net rating as Williams, Horford, and Smart each missed time throughout the postseason. With the Pacers, Brogdon shot 44.7 percent from the field and 35.2 percent from 3-point range. He averaged 18.9 points and 6.3 assists in 146 games with the Pacers over three seasons as the team’s starting point guard. Brogdon didn’t shoot as well in Indiana, where he was the main initiator for the first time in his career, than he did in Milwaukee. Brogdon shot 48.4 percent from the field and 40.8 percent from 3-point range in his three seasons with the Bucks, joining the illustrious 50/40/90 club in his final season there. Smart’s role as the Celtics’ starting point guard came into question by several analysts following the NBA Finals, in which Boston failed to score 100 points in each of the last three games. “Just slowing the game down in those moments when we need to get a good shot.”
