Luke Kornet officially joins the San Antonio Spurs following his recent exit from the Boston Celtics. The Spurs confirmed his four-year contract which starts at $11 million, declining to $9.35 million by the final year. This move enhances the Spurs' frontcourt, offering crucial support for Victor Wembanyama. Kornet's impressive performance as a backup center for the Celtics last season, where he averaged 6 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting nearly 67% from the field, highlights his capability to contribute effectively.

With Kornet's departure, the Celtics find their frontcourt depth challenged, especially with Al Horford's free agency status uncertain. The Celtics may soon need to explore roster adjustments to bolster their lineup.
