The Celtics are trading Niang and two future second-round picks to the Jazz for RJ Luis, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
After initially joining the Celtics as part of the Kristaps Porzingis trade earlier this offseason, Niang is on the move once again to land with a team he spent four seasons with earlier in his career.

Celtics' Georges Niang: Headed to Boston
The Hawks traded Niang and a second-round pick to the Celtics on Tuesday in a three-team deal that sent Kristaps Porzingis and a second-round pick back to Atlanta, and Terance Mann and the No. 22 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft to the Nets, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Niang was traded from the Cavaliers to the Hawks in February of 2025 and averaged 12.1 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 23.0 minutes across his 28 regular-season appearances for Atlanta. Due to Jayson Tatum (Achilles) potentially being out for all of 2025-26, Niang could compete for a starting role in the Celtics' forward rotation. This trade, combined with swapping Jrue Holiday for Anfernee Simons, has dropped the Celtics below the second apron.

Niang led the Hawks' reserves in scoring Friday and finished as the team's third-leading scorer behind Trae Young (29) and Onyeka Okongwu (28). Niang was able to establish a bigger role for himself after being traded by the Cavaliers to the Hawks in February. Across 28 regular-season games with Atlanta (including two starts), Niang averaged 12.1 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists over 23.0 minutes per contest.
