[Dalzell] Two Celtics takeaways from talking to lots of people here in Las Vegas: 1. Boston appears to be a very viable destination for Damian Lillard 2. People I’ve spoken with have overwhelmingly stressed you keep Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown together as long as you’re able to.

[Robb] Jordan Walsh would be the player to keep a close eye on given the construction of the roster. He’s entering his third season but his contract is only guaranteed for $200,000 until opening night.
