Injured Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum will miss playing with Jrue Holiday in the backcourt and Kristaps Porziņģis helping out around the rim. Tatum sent parting messages to both players following Boston's trades with the Portland Trail Blazers and Atlanta Hawks.

The Celtics reportedly strike another pre-Draft deal, this one centered on sending Kristaps Porziņģis to the Hawks.

Now, the Celtics are sending center Kristaps Porziņģis and a second-round pick to the Atlanta Hawks in a three-team deal with the Brooklyn Nets that sees Boston taking back the contract of Georges Niang ($8.2 million) and a second-rounder, meaning they clear over $22 million off Porziņģis' $30.7 million salaty.
