It seems that former Boston Celtics deep reserve shooting guard and small forward Svi Mykhailiuk has found himself a new ball club. A member of the 2024 title team, Mykhaliuk has turned his supporting role on that club into a new, multi-year deal with a new team.
Per ESPN senior writer Adrian Wojnarowski, “Mykhailiuk has agreed on a four-year, $15 million deal with the Utah Jazz … He played 41 games for the NBA champion … Celtics last season.” The Ukrainian swingman showed himself to be a great depth option for Boston in those 41 games, putting up 4.0 points, and 1.2 rebounds per game for the Celtics in 10.1 minutes of floor time.
Mykhailiuk shot 41.6% from the floor overall with Boston last season, 66.7% from the free throw line, and 38.9% from beyond the arc.
