Austin Rivers won't play for Celtics tonight against his old team


The Jeff Green to the Grizzlies trade is now in the books.


At least for the moment, Austin Rivers is a Celtic.  The amusing part of that situation is that his former team, the Pelicans, is Boston's opponent tonight at the TD Garden.  In case you're wondering, Rivers won't take the floor for the Celtics this evening against his former teammates--he never even made the trip to Boston.


If I had to guess I'd say chances are Rivers never puts on a Celtics uniform.
