Celtics land Vucevic, Bulls snag Simons in three-team swap

TL;DR Summary
Boston sends Nikola Vucevic to Boston? Correction: Boston acquires Nikola Vucevic from Chicago in a three-team trade with Detroit and Minnesota, while Chicago lands Anfernee Simons (and Jaden Ivey) as part of the deal. Boston also receives a 2027 Denver second-round pick and will cut more than $22 million off its projected tax bill thanks to Vucevic’s expiring contract, plus a new traded-player exception; Chicago retools its guard-heavy roster around the incoming Simons and Ivey amid a favorable 2026 second-round pick landing.
