The Boston Celtics have officially made a significant mid-offseason move, sending forward Georges Niang and two second-round draft picks to the Utah Jazz in exchange for rookie RJ Luis Jr. The deal, confirmed by league sources, is seen as a strategic step toward infusing more youth, athleticism, and long-term upside into Boston’s already championship-caliber roster.

 

Niang, 31, joined the Celtics with the reputation of being a reliable sharpshooter and versatile floor spacer, but with the team’s evolving rotation and the need to manage future salary cap space, Boston’s front office saw an opportunity to make a forward-thinking swap.

 

RJ Luis Jr., just 21 years old, was selected in this year’s draft and has already shown flashes of scoring ability, defensive versatility, and high-energy play during summer league action. Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens praised Luis Jr.’s β€œraw talent, fearless approach, and ability to impact the game on both ends,” noting that the organization is eager to develop him alongside their veteran core.

 

For Utah, the trade adds a proven stretch forward in Niang and extra draft capital to accelerate their rebuild. Both teams view the deal as a win β€” but all eyes will be on how quickly RJ Luis Jr. adapts to Boston’s winning culture.
