Celtics Writer Discusses Potential Day’Ron Sharpe Trade

Story byColin KeaneSat, January 17, 2026 at 2:33 AM UTC·2 min readThe Boston Celtics’ trade possibilities remain straightforward, even as they weigh whether to acquire or move assets. If they opt to add talent, they have clear pieces in Anfernee Simons ($27.7 million expiring deal) and Sam Hauser ($10 million salary), and their focus would likely be on bolstering the center position. One suggestion from The Athletic’s Jay King involves targeting Brooklyn Nets big man Day’Ron Sharpe, a 24-year-old who has shown plenty of flashes of potential during his young career. Sharpe has often drawn attention for his rebounding prowess and efficiency.
