Celtics are reportedly acquiring former first-round pick Juancho Hernangomez from Timberwolves

The Celtics are reportedly acquiring forward Juancho Hernangómez in exchange for guards Kris Dunn, Carsen Edwards, and a 2026 second-round pick swap.

ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported the news Friday, noting that the deal can’t be formally completed until Sept. 15 due to the contracts of Dunn and Edwards. Wojnarowski said Hernangómez gives the Celtics another potential floor-spacer in a bench role.

Hernangómez, a 6-foot-9 power forward from Madrid, Spain, has averaged 5.7 points and 3.5 rebounds over his five-year career. The former No. 15 overall pick in the 2016 NBA Draft averaged 12.
