SALT LAKE CITY -- The San Antonio Spurs have traded Boris Diaw to the Utah Jazz for point guard Olivier Hanlan, a person with knowledge of the deal said Tuesday.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because league deals do not become official until Thursday. TheVertical.com first reported the trade.
Diaw tweeted, "Spurs' fans, thanks for all your messages. Great years here and a ring! Leaving but San Antonio will always be a special place to me."
He added in another tweet, "Hey (at)utahjazz and (at)rudygobert27 ! I'm looking forward seeing you!
