For Oladipo and something called Domantis Sabonis
As for the Celtics, seems they never had a chance:
"Meanwhile, a source told ESPN's Jeff Goodman that the Celtics offered three first-round picks -- they did not include the Brooklyn Nets' pick in 2018 or the Los Angeles Lakers/Sacramento Kings pick -- and two starters (Jae Crowder being one) for George on draft night but were rejected."
Apparently the Pacers are such cowards that they'd rather take a lesser deal and hurt their own team than see George have a legit chance at a Finals. IMHO it was a similar scenario with the Bulls and Jimmy Butler: either Boston or Cleveland must have offered more than Dunn, an injured LaVine and Lauri Markinnen but the Bulls said to Butler, "If we can't win, we'll make sure you can't for at least two years either".
Edit: With the Wolves now signing Teague away from the Pacers, that team is F'd.
