With All-Star Jayson Tatum recovering from a ruptured Achilles injury and Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzinigis — two key contributors to the 2024 NBA Finals championship — Boston Celtics All-Star Jaylen Brown will lead a team in flux. Outside of Derrick White, he’s the only starter left from the starting lineup that won it all […]

This summer has been all about avoiding the second apron for the Boston Celtics. In late June, they traded two key members from their 2024 title run — center Kristaps Porzingis and guard Jrue Holiday — because of the new CBA’s punitive tax penalties. And on Thursday afternoon, they cut point guard JD Davison to […]

The Boston Celtics have made the playoffs 11 seasons running, which is enough for the longest active streak in the NBA.

Boston doesn’t […]

BOSTON — Rebuilding in the modern NBA is common, as it’s often easier for teams to start fresh rather than flounder in mediocrity for multiple seasons.

Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics are going to be an interesting team to watch next season. With no Jayson Tatum and a new-look roster, can Brown lead the Celtics back to the postseason?

This much we know. However, would Stevens […]

Boston Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum suffered a torn Achilles in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals against the New York Knicks, ending his season and putting the nail in the coffin in the Celtics’ repeat dreams.  It has also resulted in a huge shakeup for his team.

The Boston Celtics started their rebuild late on Monday night when they traded away Jrue Holiday back to the Portland Trail Blazers.
