The Los Angeles Clippers acquired Austin Rivers on Thursday in a three-team deal involving the Boston Celtics and the Phoenix Suns.
Rivers will make history as he will become the first player to play for his father in the NBA, Doc Rivers.
As part of the deal, the Clippers sent former first-round Draft pick Reggie Bullock to the Suns, while swingman Chris Douglas-Roberts as well as a 2017 second-round Draft pick go to the Celtics.
Boston also acquired Shavlik Randolph in the trade, as well as a trade exception which they will likely use to further bolster their roster.
In addition, the Clippers will waive veteran guard Jordan Farmar to create the roster room needed for the deal to be completed.
