According to reporter Jake Fischer, league sources revealed that the Boston Celtics are interested in trading Anthony Simmons and George Nian.

Fischer said, I think the Celtics are still actively answering transaction calls and may even take the initiative to call to seek transactions.

There were some communication between the Grizzlies and the Celtics last week and we are still working to get more information. But rival teams do think the Celtics are still looking for deals involving Simmons Jr. and Nyan.

Previously, the Celtics got Simmons Jr. from the Trail Blazers in the Ju Holiday trade; Nian from the Hawks in the Porzingis trade.

Simmons Jr.'s salary next season is $27.7 million and Nian's $8.2 million. By then, both of them will arrive in the last year of their contract.
