The Boston Celtics are sending veteran guard Jrue Holiday to the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for Anfernee Simons and two second-round picks.

The Boston Celtics are trading Jrue Holiday to the Portland Trail Blazers for Anfernee Simons and two second-round picks in the first major trade since the end of the NBA Finals. It's a fairly rare trade in that the recent champion Celtics are giving away the well-known veteran while the younger rebuilding team is giving away young talent in a win-now effort.

In this projected lineup, Boston would play two big man together with Kornet at the five and Porzingis as a four that can shoot from deep. Porzingis originally was drafted as a power forward and played that position for the Knicks. Kornet has shown promise in key minutes for the Celtics and could take on a larger role.
