The entire NBA world was talking about Jaylen Brown on Wednesday morning as rumors raced about the Boston Celtics possibly being open to trading him.
Where would Brown go, and which team could afford him?
Speaking on 92.3 The Fan, Nick Wilson said that the Cleveland Cavaliers should get involved in a trade for Brown.
“Evan Mobley, Jaylen Brown and Donovan Mitchell (is) probably as good of a trio as you can build. They should be one of the teams involved in the Jaylen Brown discussion,” Wilson said.

Wilson made it clear: the Cavaliers should make any trades that would bring them the trio of Evan Mobley, Donovan Mitchell, and Brown.
That group sounds fearsome, and the rest of the Eastern Conference would definitely be on notice if they came together.
But what are the chances of this actually happening?
First of all, no one is entirely sure if the Celtics will actually give up Brown.
Right now, there are many rumors, but nothing concrete about him leaving the team.
And if the Celtics do decide to cut ties with Brown, a number of franchises will jump at the chance to get him.
The Cavaliers would be one of many trying to get Brown, and the competition would be fierce.
Brown has a monster salary, and Cleveland would need to give up a lot in order to acquire him.
That means they would basically decimate the rest of their roster, and Mobley, Mitchell, and Brown might be all that the Cavaliers have left.
Would it really be worth it to them, especially after such a strong regular season?
