The Celtics reportedly started their moves at the trade deadline with a small one that has larger implications, sending Bol Bol and P.J. Dozier to the Magic.
Per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the Celtics acquired a second-round pick in exchange for Bol and Dozier. The trade gets the Celtics under the luxury tax.
The Celtics acquired Bol and Dozier in a three-team deal that sent Juancho Hernangomez to the Spurs and Bryn Forbes to the Nuggets earlier this year. Dozier is out for the year with a torn ACL, while Bol is out for several weeks after undergoing foot surgery.
