Nothing feels better than pulling off a something-for-nothing trade during the NBA offseason.
The Boston Celtics did just that on Tuesday, acquiring 23-year-old forward Perry Jones III from the Oklahoma City Thunder, along with a 2019 second-round pick from the Detroit Pistons and cash considerations. In return, the C’s only had to surrender a future conditional second-round pick to OKC.
The Thunder drafted Jones 28th overall out of Baylor University during the 2012 NBA Draft and he was labeled as one of the top athletes of that draft class.
