The Boston Celtics pursued a trade for Nikola Vucevic before he was moved by the Orlando Magic to the Chicago Bulls. Boston offered multiple first round picks and were a finalist.

Boston was also linked to trade talks with the Magic on Aaron Gordon, who was instead traded to the Denver Nuggets.

The Celtics ultimately traded for Evan Fournier, who had the cheapest asking price by the Magic.

With the Celtics trading away Daniel Theis in a tax saving move, they are pursuing Andre Drummond on the buyout market.
