After two seasons with the team, the Boston Celtics traded Kristaps Porzingis to the Atlanta Hawks as part of a three-team trade with the Brooklyn Nets earlier this offseason. This trade was widely anticipated due to Boston looking to move under the second apron, and the Latvian native is now officially on his third team in four years.

Kristaps Porzingis' exit from the Boston Celtics was made official on Monday, July 7. The veteran big man was sent to the Atlanta Hawks as part of a three-team trade that also included the Brooklyn Nets. Atlanta announced the deal via a press release, confirming the talented big man will now team up with Trae Young on Quin Snyder's roster.
