Boston Celtics: 3 Players that could be traded during the 2019-20 season

#1 Gordon Hayward

Gordon Hayward is yet to make an impact during his time with the Boston Celtics

Gordon Hayward has reportedly enjoyed a strong offseason, although the 29-year-old still faces an uphill battle to remain part of Boston's long-term plans. Hayward is coming off the worst season of his career since his rookie year and the forward is expected to begin the new season as part of Brad Stevens' bench.

Now two years removed from a career-threatening injury, Hayward is also running out of time to show that he can play a key part for the Celtics over the next few years.

Also working against Hayward is the fact that he is owed more than $60 million over the next two seasons on a Celtics roster that lacks cap-space. Ultimately, Hayward could still enjoy a resurgent season and re-establish himself as a starter, however, it is much more likely that the Celtics will look to move him ahead of the trade deadline.
