Celtics Rule Out Pursuing Damian Lillard, Focus on Jaylen Brown's Supermax

The Boston Celtics are reportedly not pursuing a trade for Damian Lillard, despite the star guard's request to be traded from the Portland Trail Blazers. While things could change, the Celtics are currently out of the Lillard sweepstakes. Jaylen Brown, who has been mentioned as a potential trade piece, is expected to sign a super-max deal with the Celtics, and negotiations are expected to take place during Summer League.
