The Celtics took action! Send Anthony Simmons and the first round pick, and invite Kessler to join the team

Recently, the NBA trading market has caused another wave, and the Boston Celtics completed an epic deal that is enough to change the league structure. They sent the newly-embarked defender Anthony Simmons, plus two first-round draft picks to the Utah Jazz in exchange for inside player Walker Kessler, adding an important puzzle to the team's road to championship.

Anfenny Simmons is a very potential defender with excellent scoring ability, especially outside the three-point line, and often helps the team score with unreasonable long shots. After joining the Celtics, he also showed a certain level of combat effectiveness. However, for the Celtics who are determined to win the championship, the strengthening of their inside strength is more urgent. After weighing the trade-offs, the management reluctantly gave up and put it into the bargaining chips.

And Kessler, the Jazz's inside core, is undoubtedly a shining star in today's league. This season, he averaged 18 points per game and 10 rebounds, and had excellent performances on both offense and defense. On the offensive end, Kessler has solid basket skills, and can effectively complete the ending whether it is a back-to-back single or a slap; on the defensive end, he has become an insurmountable barrier for his opponents with his outstanding height, wingspan and keen defensive awareness, and his frame protection ability is top-notch.

For the Celtics, Kessler's arrival is of great significance. On the offensive end, he can form a good cooperation with outside stars such as Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown, providing more inside scoring options while opening up space for the team; on the defensive end, his presence will greatly improve the team's inside defense intensity, making the Celtics more competitive when facing teams with strong inside lines such as the Bucks and the 76ers.

From the Jazz's point of view, this deal is also very consistent with their reconstruction strategy. Getting Anfini Simmons injected new vitality into the team's backcourt, and Simmons' scoring ability can help the team improve offensive firepower during the reconstruction process. The two first-round draft picks provide more possibilities for the team's future development, and the Jazz can use this to select potential new stars to accelerate the team's reconstruction process.

This transaction is undoubtedly a win-win operation. The Celtics have enhanced the team's championship competition by betting on the future; the Jazz have taken a solid step on the road to reconstruction. With Kessler officially put on the Celtics' jersey, the NBA arena in the new season will surely be even more exciting. We look forward to him shining in the new team, and we look forward to the Celtics launching a strong impact on the championship trophy with his help.
