The Sacramento Kings reportedly acquired big man Tristan Thompson from the Boston Celtics on Friday in a three-team trade that also included the Atlanta Hawks.
Boston will receive point guard Kris Dunn, big man Bruno Fernando and a 2023 second-round draft pick from the Hawks, while Atlanta will obtain point guard Delon Wright from the Kings.
The 30-year-old Thompson averaged 7.6 points and 8.1 rebounds in 54 games (43 starts) last season in his lone season with the Celtics. He spent his first nine seasons with the Cleveland Cavaliers and has career averages of 9.3 points and 8.7 rebounds in 673 games (472 starts).
