The Boston Celtics don’t appear likely to part with their lone 2019 lottery pick Romeo Langford in the 2020 offseason.

If Boston Celtics general manager Danny Ainge is speaking truthfully about his 2019 lottery pick–and not just pumping him up to shed a positive light on him to make him more attractive to opposing general managers–then Romeo Langford is unlikely to be involved in any trades this offseason

Truthfully, this was not the rookie season Langford would have hoped for. Instead of developing into a key bench piece on a crowded bench devoid of many standouts, the Indiana product spent most of the season on the shelf, collecting new ailment after new ailment in the process.
