The Boston Celtics are exploring the possibility of a three-team sign-and-trade, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Such a deal would involve the Celtics receiving Kemba Walker, Kyrie Irving heading to the Brooklyn Nets, and Terry Rozier landing with the Charlotte Hornets.

All three players will hit unrestricted free agency at 6 p.m. ET on Sunday.

Walker and Irving are both entitled to make up to $141 million over four years as part of a sign-and-trade, as they each have at least eight years of NBA service time.

The Celtics hope to create a full mid-level exception, according to Wojnarowski.
