The Boston Celtics are trading Chris Boucher to the Utah Jazz, sources tell ESPN.

I hope Danny gives Brad a nice return.

Thought he would be a strong contributor this year

I hope Danny gives Brad a nice return.

considering it's Danny, I'm expecting to hear Brad included this year's 1st rounder with Boucher in exchange for Utah's 2031 second round pick protected 30-55.

I assume a top-55 protected pick back to us and some cash to Utah.

Agreed, but I think the Celtics actually like Tillman.  Boucher got to stay at home most of the last two months.

Celtics currently sits $3.6 million above the luxury tax line after moving Boucher. Also worth noting the Vucevic deal isn?t official yet so some additional maneuvering is possible there in next few hours. Stay tuned.

Me too. Seemed like he often hurt Boston when he played for Toronto.

He was getting minutes earlier in the season, until Garzilla locked up the back up center role.

TP to whoever finds out what the rest of the Boucher trade is.

[Redz]

Well

We'll always have the Westbrook in winter garb moment.

SI
"Due to that move to cut Ball, the Jazz had an open roster spot to use at their disposal before the trade deadline hit, allowing them to take in Boucher without sending another player to Boston."

[Jiri Welsch]

So a straight salary dump? Nice.

[Goldstar88]

I certainly didn?t expect to get anything back for him. He?s terrible. Not sure what Brad was thinking with that one.
