The Boston Celtics are continuing to hold extensive trade conversations with multiple teams around the NBA on Jaylen Brown. Brown has three seasons remaining on his contract but is eligible for an extension this offseason. The Celtics were eliminated in the first round in seven games against the Philadelphia 76ers.

"The Boston Celtics are actively engaged in trade talks surrounding Jaylen Brown with multiple interested teams," said Shams Charania before the start of Wednesday's second round. "I'm told there is a sense of purpose from teams around the leagues that they feel from the Celtics in these conversations.

"And that does not mean though that a deal is guaranteed. Jaylen Brown does have three years left on his contract. From my understanding, the urgency from either side can change as the weeks to come.

"This all comes in the wake of the Celtics losing out on Giannis after offering Jaylen Brown and two first round picks."

Brad Stevens addressed the media on Tuesday after the first round of the draft and clarified that he's held a dialogue with Brown, but he never said that the All-NBA wing would not be traded.

"I would believe there is a very good chance Jaylen Brown will be elsewhere to start the season," said Brian Windhorst.
