3 for 1! The deal was officially concluded! Eastern powers withdrew from the championship ranks

Basketball

A seemingly insignificant transactions have great uses.

Revelation King Shams: The Celtics sent Nian (annual salary of US$8.2 million) and the next two second round picks to the Jazz in exchange for RJ Louis (two-way contract). After the transaction, the Celtics saved another money, according to statistics, saving up to $300 million in 51 days, and their total salary + luxury tax was as high as $540 million.

Celtics ranked second in the Eastern Conference with 61 wins and 21 losses last season, but this year's playoffs stopped in the second round, missing the defending championship, and paid the price of star Tatum's Achilles tendon ruptured, and it was basically confirmed that all reimbursements were made in the 25-26 season.

The Celtics are ready to give up the 25-26 season, and their goal is to save money and avoid continuing to pay high luxury taxes. The measures taken include sending away two heroes, Holiday (The Blazers) and Porzingis (The Hawks), who won the championship in 24 years.

However, temporary loneliness does not represent permanent failure. When Tatum returns from injury, the Celtics will obviously become the favorites for the championship again!
