Trade Analysis

Boston Celtics Perspective

Boston's side produced a little more usable roster or draft value than Ed Pinckney; rights to Andrei Fetisov. The limited stakes keep the verdict at a slight edge.

Milwaukee Bucks Perspective

The counterparty appears to have extracted somewhat more value, though Milwaukee's rationale was defensible. Milwaukee received Ed Pinckney; rights to Andrei Fetisov and gave up Derek Strong; Blue Edwards. On a hindsight basis, most of the value rests in the players and assets that actually changed hands. The grade also accounts for transaction scale and whether the outgoing package contained premium first-round or established-player value. The assets exchanged are clear enough to support moderate confidence in this assessment.
