A member of the Rivers family could be making their way to Boston.
Longtime NBA guard Austin Rivers is still seeking a home and the Celtics are among those that have shown interest in him, The Boston Globe’s Gary Washburn reported.
Boston doesn’t necessarily have a pressing need for a guard, but it did part ways with one this offseason. The Celtis traded Marcus Smart, along with Danilo Gallinari and Mike Muscala, for Kristaps Porzingis and two first-round picks in June.
While the Celtics have three NBA-caliber point guards in Derrick White, Malcolm Brogdon, and Payton Pritchard, they haven’t added a guard to replace Smart’s spot on the roster this offseason.
