There is legitimate concern about the roster construction of the team now, as well as the potential cap hit Kessler might command down the road.

In 32 games with the Jazz this season, Kessler averages 10.8 points, 11.3 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks on 72.0% field goal shooting. On the other hand, Springer has only appeared in 35 games with the Celtics since the beginning of the 2023-24 season.

Walker Kessler is a name to keep tabs on as the Boston Celtics seek to strengthen their roster ahead of the trade deadline.
