Our insider Chris Forsberg shares what he’s hearing from league sources about the Celtics’ reported interest in acquiring Jazz center Kelly Olynyk before the NBA trade deadline.

that both the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat have interest in acquiring Olynyk. The 6-foot-11 center was drafted by the Celtics in 2013 and played with them through the 2016-17 season. He left Boston in the summer of 2017 to join the Miami Heat in free agency and played in South Beach for three-plus seasons.

Olynyk is now playing for the Utah Jazz, who are surprisingly in a playoff spot as the No. 8 seed in the Western Conference standings entering Saturday. But the Jazz are probably more concerned about the future and not competing in 2023, and trading Olynyk could add to their already impressive stockpile of draft picks and young players.
