Sources: Teams Expect Celtics to Stand Pat at Deadline

The Celtics, like every other team in the NBA, are preparing for the possibility of one or two trades setting off an avalanche. But according to teams that have spoken to them, the Celts may be looking more at players around the edges, rather than at more significant deals, as Thursday’s trade deadline approaches.

In fact, they could be more active in the buyout market later, if, as most anticipate, a roster spot will become free when the Jabari Bird situation is adjudicated by the league office.
