Trade Details
POIRIER PICKED UP BY OKC Thursday, November 19, 2020
The Oklahoma City Thunder acquired center Vincent Poirier from the Boston Celtics for a future second-round draft pick.
What does it give the Oklahoma City Thunder?
Poirier will try to land the backup center job in Oklahoma City in 2020-21, though vet Mike Muscala is still around and OKC also has high hopes for '20 first-rounder Aleksei Pokusevski.
What does it give the Boston Celtics?
The Celtics have a glut of centers (Daniel Theis; Enes Kanter; Robert Williams III and Tacko Fall), so they could afford to move on from Poirier at this time.
Fantasy Impact
Do not expect Poirier to make much of a dent in fantasy leagues this season.
