Maine Celtics land Badji's G League rights in Windy City swap

Boston's G League affiliate acquired the returning player rights to center Ibou Badji, forward Tyler Polley and guard Erik Reynolds II from the Windy City Bulls.

Maine also received a 2026 G League first-round pick in the deal. In return, Windy City got the returning rights to forward Jalen Bridges and guard Tyrell Roberts.

Badji, a 7-foot-1 center who has bounced between the Blazers' two-way deals and several G League and overseas stops, is not guaranteed a roster spot, but Maine now controls his rights if he returns.
