NBA Three-Team Trade Sends Niang to Celtics, Porzingis to Hawks

News summary

The Boston Celtics were active in the 2025 NBA offseason, engaging in blockbuster trades including acquiring Georges Niang from the Atlanta Hawks in a three-team deal that also involved Kristaps Porzingis returning to Atlanta. Although Niang is entering the final year of his contract and may not fit Boston's rebuilding plans, his sharpshooting skills make him a potential trade asset for contenders. The Celtics also made notable moves in the NBA Draft, selecting wingman Hugo Gonzalez and acquiring Kentucky center Amari Williams through a pick swap with Orlando, while managing their salary cap carefully. Meanwhile, the San Antonio Spurs drafted Kam Jones, a high-scoring guard from Marquette University, whose rights were traded to the Indianapolis Pacers, fresh off a close NBA Finals appearance. On the college front, Alabama signed a versatile forward, London Jemison, known for his unique blend of power forward strength and shooting guard range, adding depth to their roster. Additionally, Northwestern's basketball captain Brooks Barnhizer is entering the draft as a tough, defensively skilled role player expected to fit well with teams like the Washington Wizards, who are undergoing a rebuild.
