Brad Stevens, now in a front office role, has a strong track record for the Boston Celtics, notably orchestrating the moves that secured the 2024 NBA Championship. He has also consistently identified valuable talent through late-round draft picks. Stevens' management faced scrutiny this summer after trading Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Paul George and additional draft assets.
