Also part of the potential deal would be forward Jae Crowder along with center Ante Zizic and future draft picks. While selections from a playoff team might ordinarily mean later-round picks, the Celtics own the Brooklyn Nets’ first-round selection, which is likely to be a lottery pick.
The 28-year-old Thomas, who stands 5-foot-9, averaged 28.9 points and 5.9 assists last season, having come into his own over the past two seasons. Crowder is a 27-year-old defensive ace, who averaged 13.9 points and 5.8 rebounds last year.
Zizic is the wild card of the group. The 20-year-old was drafted in 2016 as the 23rd overall pick and stands 7-feet tall, though he played internationally this past season in Croatia.
