The Celtics and reigning Sixth Man of the Year Malcolm Brogdon might be on shaky terms entering the 2023-24 season.
Reports earlier this week noted that the veteran guard’s relationship with Boston took a hit this offseason, especially after Boston was close to dealing him to the Clippers in a three-team trade that ultimately fell through.
It’s natural for there to be some ill will and hard feelings after spotting your name in trade rumors.
But ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne added a new wrinkle to the Brogdon saga on Thursday, reporting that his frustration with his team has more to do with how the Celtics handled the elbow injury that he played through during the 2023 playoffs.
