The Boston Celtics traded recently acquired forward Georges Niang and two future second-round draft picks to the Utah Jazz i<\/p>\n

\"92.9<\/p>\n

The deal is contingent on the players passing their physicals.<\/p>\n

Niang is headed to Utah just a month after being dealt to Boston as\u00a0part of a three-team deal<\/a>\u00a0that sent Kristaps Porzingis to Atlanta. Niang previously spent four seasons with Utah. He appeared in 79 games split between Atlanta and Cleveland last season when he averaged a career-high 9.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game.<\/p>\n

Shedding the final year of Niang’s salary for next season will save Boston $8 million in luxury taxes, and allow it to stay under the second penalty apron following the addition of Chris Boucher, who agreed to a one-year, $3.3 million deal.<\/p>\n

Boucher has spent the past seven seasons with Toronto, where he was part of its 2019 championship team.<\/p>\n
