I doubt many people have watched much of Zach Collins, but the guy is perfect as a rotation big for this Celtics team.

Collins’ injury issues have blighted his young career, but with heavily restricted minutes rotating with Horford & Williams III, it would help all three guys stay healthy.

Collins can pass from the top of the key or out of the post, hit open 3’s at a solid clip and is an above average post defender.

If Utah go in full tank, after mid décember :

 Vanderbilt + Gay for Gallo, Pritchard and Kornet + 2024 1st UP

Works only if Danny dont give much importance in Vdb upside and see one in Pritchard. Jared would be complementary also in a big man option with Al. Problem is the trade could be done when Timelord comes back

If possible, I'd prefer to save our #1s for potential impact players.  Every off-season, it seems like you can find a really good player for a first rounder.  This year, we got Brogdon, and Dallas got Wood.  Those type of players will give you more than Collins, I think.

That said, the Celts do have some other ammunition this year.  We've potentially got two pretty good second rounders in this draft, via Houston (protected for picks 31 and 32) and Portland.
