NBA Trade Rumours Roundup, January 27th: Celtics trade update, Markelle Fultz trade and more

Celtics unlikely to make a trade

Action from The Detroit Pistons v New Orleans Pelicans

Entering the 18/19 season, the Boston Celtics were the heavy favorites to top the Eastern Conference standings. Nevertheless, the team is currently sitting a disappointing 5th due to an underwhelming 32-19 record. Despite the Celtics' struggles, NBC Sports is reporting that the franchise is unlikely to make a trade this month:

The Celtics could float Terry Rozier and Jaylen Brown on the trade market, but league sources tell NBCSports.com they are likely to sit sight and hope both bounce back to last season’s levels. With the chances of a midseason Anthony Davis trade lessening by the day, the Celtics have good reason to hold pat.

If the Celtics fail to make a trade this month, the team is believed to be willing to go all in on a summer move for Anthony Davis from the New Orleans Pelicans.
