After a relatively quiet night in Thursday’s NBA Draft, the Celtics’ offseason is getting busy again.
Boston will trade center Tristan Thompson to the Sacramento Kings as part of a three-team trade, ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported Friday. In return, the Celtics will get point guard Kris Dunn, big man Bruno Fernando, and a 2023 second-round pick from the Hawks. Atlanta will receive point guard Delon Wright from Sacramento.
Thompson’s time with the Celtics ends after just one season. Joining the Celtics as a free agent prior to the start of the 2020-21 season, Thompson shuffled around in the Celtics’ big man rotation.
