Celtics acquire Josh Richardson from Mavericks using TPE
Richardson will exercise his $11.6M player option to join Boston
The Boston Celtics have agreed to acquire Josh Richardson from the Dallas Mavericks using their $11 million trade exception, reports Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Richardson is exercising his $11.6 million player option for the 21-22 season for the deal. The trade will be finalized on Saturday as Richardson’s salary jumps when the league season rolls over and the TPE would no longer be sufficient to accommodate his contract.
