New Celtics Trade Report Surfaces Before NBA Draft originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After winning the NBA title in 2024, the Boston Celtics will look like a completely different team to begin the 2025-26 season.

Kristaps Porzingis is being traded by the Boston Celtics to the Atlanta Hawks, and part of what will be a three-team deal gives the Brooklyn Nets another selection in Wednesday’s first round of the NBA Draft, according to a person with knowledge of the agreement.

The 2025 NBA Draft begins at 8 p.m. Wednesday from Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. The first round will take place Wednesday and be broadcast on ABC and ESPN. The second round is set for 8 p.m. Thursday on ESPN. Splitting up the rounds to its own separate day is a relatively new development for the league, which used to power through all on one night.
