Celtics officially announced! 3 for 1 is officially completed! Stevens offers S-level operations again
1:05pm, 7 August 2025【Basketball】
August 7, the Boston Celtics officially announced that they would send George Nian + two future second round picks to the Utah Jazz in exchange for rookie Reggie Louis Jr.
And with the announcement of the Celtics' deal to reach a 3-for-1 deal, this means that George Nian is about to usher in his fourth new owner in the past six months. In February this year, the Cleveland Cavaliers traded George Nian to the Atlanta Hawks, and in June this year, the Hawks traded him to the Celtics, and now the Celtics send him to the Utah Jazz again. Although Nian was exhausted by the transaction one after another, this was actually a good thing for him! Because he finally returned to his old club, Jazz, who had played for four seasons before, everything familiar here will allow him to quickly find a sense of home.
According to a follow-up report by Ary, a league source revealed that the Celtics intend to keep Reggie Louis. It is reported that Reggie Louis, 22, is 2.01 meters tall and weighs 98 kilograms. He is a forward-guard swingman on the field. He is the NBA undraft this year. His current contract is a two-year two-way contract.
Although the Celtics looked like a big loser in this year's draw, they gave away an instant Nian and two future second-round picks, but only exchanged the Jazz back to a undraft this year. Little do they know that this is actually another S-level operation achieved by Celtics general manager Stevens this summer! According to NBA salary expert Yossi Gozlan, the Celtics saved the team's salary expenditure plus luxury taxes through the George Nian trade. After completing this 3-for-1 transaction, the Celtics exceeded the first tyrant line by 1.7 million and the luxury tax line by 9.4 million. If Stevens continues to operate and can reduce the team's total salary to below the luxury tax line, the Celtics will save another $40 million.
It can be seen that the Celtics' 3-for-1 transaction was a loss on the surface, but in fact it was a silence to make a fortune! After all, all the operations of the Celtics this summer have never been reinforced, but to keep the team’s spending as much as possible! Now, Stevens trades Nion to save the Celtics $50 million in spending, which is undoubtedly a big profit for them, because there is nothing more successful and excited than reducing the team's spending!
Of course, saving 50 million through Nyan trading is only part of Stevens' S-level operation this summer. Before this, Stevens contributed many S-level operations! Next, let's review Stevens's work of gods this summer:
1. Send Ju Holiday away and exchange for Anthony Simmons;
2. Send Porzingis away and exchange for Nian + 1 second round pick;
3. Let Connet go, let him sign the Spurs for 41 million in four years;
4. Give up Al Horford and make him a complete free agent;
5, sign Garza for 5.5 million in two years;
6. Trading Nian + two future second round picks, and got the undrafted Reggie Luis;
7. Signing free agent and champion striker Chris Boucher in one year for a minimum salary of 3.3 million in one year for a minimum salary of 3.3 million in one year for a free agent and champion striker Chris Boucher.
Before sending away Zhu Holiday from the first operation, the Celtics' total salary + luxury tax next season was as high as 540 million US dollars. Now that the transaction has left, Nian has successfully reduced the team's salary + luxury tax to US$239 million. Stevens saved the Celtics $301 million in just 51 days. This move is really amazing! In the past period of time, Stevens can be said to have contributed S-level operations again and again to us, which makes people fascinated!
So, will Stevens contribute S-level operations again next? Let's wait and see!
