The Nuggets, Celtics and Spurs are making a three-team trade that includes Juancho Hernangomez going to San Antonio, Bryn Forbes going to Denver and Bol Bol and P.J. Dozier going to Boston, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
Per Wojnarowski, San Antonio is also acquiring Denver’s 2028 second-round pick in the three-team deal.
For the Celtics, the move gets them close to getting out of the luxury tax completely. Boston has an open roster spot after cutting Jabari Parker earlier this month. It also made the move knowing that
Bol will miss 8-12 weeks after deciding to undergo foot surgery, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania. Dozier is out for the season with a torn ACL and will be a free agent.
Hernangomez, meanwhile, gives the Spurs a versatile wing with some rebounding ability, having averaged 7.3 boards just two seasons ago for the Timberwolves. For his career, the 26-year-old is averaging 5.4 points and 3.4 rebounds in 15.7 minutes.
The Nuggets are adding some shooting to their bench with Forbes, who is averaging 9.1 points and 41.7% shooting from beyond the arc. For his career, the 28-year-old is averaging 41.3% on 3-pointers.
