A former Toronto Raptor is on the move.
The Boston Celtics have traded Chris Boucher to the Utah Jazz, the team announced.
The Jazz are expected to waive Boucher, allowing him to sign with a playoff team, per Hoops Hype's Michael Scotto.
Boucher signed a one-year deal with the Celtics this past off-season after seven seasons in Toronto. He hadn't had much of an opportunity with the Celtics, appearing in just nine games.
The Canadian is averaging 2.3 points and two rebounds on the season.
Boucher, 33, held averages of 8.9 points, 5.1 rebounds and 0.9 blocks per game during his time in Toronto. He was a member of the 2019 roster that won the NBA Championship.
The Jazz also received the Denver Nuggets' 2027 second-round pick to take on Boucher.
The move saves Boston some money on the tax and opens up a roster spot.
