The Boston Celtics are very much in the market for a center and will certainly look to make a move prior to the trading deadline.

New Orleans center Chris Kaman has been on the trading block for a while, with the asking price seemingly dropping by the minute.

He’s earning more than $14 million this season, which as you can imagine, has scared off a number of potential suitors.

If the Hornets can’t move him via trade, you can anticipate talks about a buy-out to begin soon.

That would allow him to become a free agent and sign with any team of his choosing.

According to a league source, Boston would be on his short list of potential destinations.

“You look at what they need and what he brings to the game . . . it would be a great fit, it really would,” the source said. “But a lot of things have to happen, and not happen, before that can come about.”
