A pivotal development in Chris Boucher's next NBA chapter with the Boston Celtics has been revealed.

For many years now, the final remnant of the 2019 championship-era roster had been sharpshooting fan favorite and gritty hustle player Chris Boucher. Though, it’s worth noting that this could be revisited if recently acquired Patrick McCaw ends up sticking around with the Raptors 905.

While everyone else he shared the court with during that special time has come and gone, Boucher stood out as a lasting relic of a past chapter in Raptors history. Unfortunately, his time with the team also reached a bittersweet end — after Toronto made it clear they weren’t interested in extending his contract, he walked in free agency to join divisional rival, the Boston Celtics.
