The Boston Celtics have traded Georges Niang and two future second-round picks to the Utah Jazz for rookie RJ Luis Jr., it was announced Tuesday. Niang's more than $8 million salary will go into Utah's trade exception from the John Collins deal.

Boucher was Toronto’s all-time franchise record in points, rebounds, blocks, minutes and games played off the bench. The post Celtics reportedly sign veteran big man Chris Boucher to 1-year deal appeared first on Boston.

Boston, which will be without star Jayson Tatum for most of the year after he suffered a torn Achilles, is clearly looking to save money this season. After trading Niang and signing Boucher, the Celtics are now $6.9 million below the second apron and $5 million over the first apron.
