Anfernee Simons’ encouraging Celtics tenure lasted just half of one season. Boston reached an agreement to trade Simons to the Chicago Bulls for 35-year-old center Nikola Vucevic, according to a report Tuesday from ESPN’s Shams Charania.

If you asked people whether or not they had a chance back at the start of the season they wouldn’t even have answered, you would have just received insane looks as they scoffed at such a ridiculous question.

The most important thing: Maye feels his injured throwing shoulder will be 100% by kickoff. Here’s what else we learned about Maye: • Maye said his heroes are his three older brothers, Luke, Cole and Beau. “Growing up with them, having somebody that close to me live…
