Canadian Tristan Thompson agrees to two-year, $19M deal with Celtics

One-time National Basketball Association champion and Toronto, Ontario native Tristan Thompson has signed with the Boston Celtics, according to Yahoo Sports' Chris Haynes.

Per the Athletic's Joe Vardon, Thompson's deal is for two years and $19 million - likely Boston's full non-taxpayer mid-level exception.

Tristan Thompson is going to be playing for a team not named the Cleveland Cavaliers for the first time as he enters his 10th season in the National Basketball Association.

Whether he would remain in Cleveland became a question when the Cavaliers acquired fellow big man Andre Drummond at the February trade deadline. It was the second consecutive season the Texas product averaged a double-double.

Thompson averaged 12.0 points and 10.7 rebounds per game for the Cavs and will immediately arrive in Boston as one of the team's top frontcourt options. He took a career-high 23 3-pointers last season, making a career-high nine of them.

The move leaves the Celtics with about $4 million to spend, as the team continues to search for a backup point guard and bench shooter.
