Trade Analysis
Boston Celtics Perspective
The deal leaned away from Boston because Jo Jo White carried the better realized value, though neither package became franchise-defining.
Golden State Warriors Perspective
The Warriors acquired an aging Jo Jo White while Boston received the ninth pick, used on Larry Demic. Golden State received Jo Jo White and sent 1979 first round pick (#9-Larry Demic). The long-term value clearly favored the counterpart. The displayed team grades for Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors reflect the realized value of the players, draft assets and transaction context that ultimately materialized. The judgment is retrospective and does not assume that every later draft outcome was predictable on the trade date.
