Trade update: Ainge trying to send Austin Rivers to Clippers for pick

Austin Rivers hasn't even arrived in Boston yet, and he already appears to be out the door to join his father in Los Angeles, most likely for a 2nd round pick. This is probably better for the Celtics in the long run as opposed to keeping him, as there is currently a log jam of guards on the roster who could use the playing time.

From Yahoo's Adrian Wojnarowski:

Boston's on phones now, trying to find a deal to move on Austin Rivers, league sources tell Yahoo.

Yahoo Sources: Within front office and coaching staff, officials pushing president/coach Doc Rivers to bring his son, Austin, to Clippers.

Austin's 22, pending free agent. Clips searching for PG depth. Front office/ assistants telling Doc: Forget his last name. This makes sense.

Celtics willing to move A. Rivers for 2nd-round pick. For Clippers, it's free look at 10th overall pick -- who'd only be college senior now.
