Celtics Have “Deep Interest” In P.J. Tucker

February 19th 2017 at 3:08pm CST by Milo Taibi

The Suns have been shopping P.J. Tucker, and- according to a report from Sean Deveney of the Sporting News– the Celtics have “deep interest” in the 31-year-old. Boston could view Tucker as an alternative to trading for Jimmy Butler; a move that would require giving up their first round draft pick. A defensive standout, Tucker has averaged six rebounds with 1.5 steals through 57 games in 2016/17.

Tucker is on an expiring contract, making $5.3MM in the final season of a three-year, $16.5MM deal. With the addition of Tucker, Deveney notes, GM Danny Ainge would be able to add depth while keeping Boston’s draft picks intact. Interestingly, Deveney points to Tucker’s locker room presence as a potential advantage over Butler, as “Jimmy Buckets” would have to be willing to assume a secondary role behind Isaiah Thomas.

If a move to the Celtics doesn’t materialize, we’ve recently seen the Timberwolves connected to Tucker as a trade deadline possibility.

Isaiah isn't really that much better than Jimmy. I'm not sure about the secondary role stuff. If the Celtics were going to trade for Butler and give up their first round pick to do so it wouldn't be to have him defend and take 10 shots a game. If they think letting Isaiah iso all fourth quarter is going to get them out of the east they are wrong.

Maybe Stevens will play around with some IT, Butler plays tonight. Haha, no way, this game gets silly soon.

I don't pretend to know that much about the Celtics outlook but to me if they want to win now they need to make a trade. If they think having Ball or Fultz is the better option that's fine, but it probably closes their championship window for a few years. If I was ainge I'd keep the nets picks because nobody is beating GSW anyway.

LeBron has no lift....it certainly isn't effortless anymore.

Jesus these announcers need to stfu already about Durant and Westbrook

Why do they think it's necessary for them to kiss and make up? Let the hate burn for all of eternity I say.

The pullup threes from 35 feet are disgraceful. I'm sure Spike would agree.

122 three point attempts tonight

Kerr gave Cousins 2 minutes of playing time. Petty af.

Well maybe that's why cousins didn't play. Weird trade that doesn't really move the needle for either team.

i saw a report that said boogie asked to only play 2 minutes

not sure how true or not it is

While it was tempting, I'm glad Boston stayed away from Cousins. Word is Stevens didn't want to touch him "with a 10-foot poll."
