Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser was on the verge of NBA history on Sunday night. With 7:53 remaining in the third quarter against the Washington Wizards, he had a career-high 30 points via 10 triples. Unfortunately, his 3-point count would end there, as Hauser twisted his ankle near the Washington bench and never returned. The […]

The 2023-24 Boston Celtics have been historically great. The 2023-24 Washington Wizards have been historically bad. When these two squads met on St. Patrick’s Day, something crazy was bound to happen. Although they were down three starters on Sunday night, the C’s prevailed 130-104 in record-breaking fashion. Boston sharpshooter Sam Hauser hit a career-high 10 […]

Depth was big concern for the Boston Celtics entering the season. Joe Mazzulla had to part ways with Marcus Smart, Malcolm Brogdon, and Robert Williams in the offseason. This meant that someone else from the Jayson Tatum-led squad had to step up. Against the Washington Wizards and a couple of occasions throughout the season, that […]

Back in November, when asked about Sam Hauser’s defense, Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla stopped short of saying it. “I think he’s a much better defender than people think,” Joe Mazzulla said after a Nov. 13th Celtics win over the New York Knicks. “I can’t say why, or else I’ll get in trouble.” Well, two […]

The Boston Celtics won a close game against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night and star guard, Jaylen Brown, was hyped about one particular play. He threw an alley-oop up to Sam Hauser, who has become a bit of a rising star for Boston. Excitement was running high for the Celtics after the big win. […]

To start the Boston Celtics’ 2023-24 season, nobody was talking about forward Sam Hauser. It’s not hard to understand why given Boston’s exceptionally busy offseason. The C’s traded major players like Marcus Smart, acquired All-Stars in Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis, and gave Jaylen Brown the richest contract in NBA history. When it came to […]

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser fits the stereotype of a player opposing teams would want to attack. He looks pretty unassuming, is known primarily for his offense, and is rarely the most athletic guy on the court given Boston’s talented roster. In fact, former Celtics point guard Marcus Smart even said last season that if […]

Joe Mazzulla and the Boston Celtics look significantly different from what they were after their Eastern Conference Finals exit. The core got shaken up and it seems like Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum are the only untouchable players in their current roster. Additions like Kristaps Porzingis, Jrue Holiday, Svi Mykhailiuk, Oshae Brissett, and Dalano Banton […]

Boston Celtics point guard Marcus Smart doesn’t have to worry about being singled out every night by opposing offenses, but he realizes that some of his teammates aren’t as fortunate. After Boston’s narrow overtime win over the Indiana Pacers, Smart noted that sharpshooter Sam Hauser is often targeted by teams looking for an easy bucket. […]

Milwaukee dispatched Boston 131-125 on Tuesday, but the Bucks were much more in danger of losing to the Celtics than the score indicates. Celtics sharpshooter Sam Hauser was a big reason why. With no Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart, and Al Horford, the clash of East titans looked slated to be severely one-sided on […]

The Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks engaged in one of the most entertaining games of the season Tuesday night. The Celtics entered the game without the services of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Marcus Smart and Al Horford. Despite being without four of their top stars, they led for much of the game. However, the Bucks […]

With the halfway point of the 2022-23 NBA season here and the February 9th trade deadline just over a month away, the Charlotte Hornets find themselves near the very bottom of the Eastern Conference standings. At 11-29, the Detroit Pistons are the lone team in the East with a worse record (11-31). There have been […]

The NBA is a star-powered league these days, but the Boston Celtics’ bench has been just as pivotal to the team’s hot start during the 2022-23 season. While Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown have played phenomenally for the C’s, the guys coming off the pine are also putting up ridiculous numbers that have boosted Boston […]

The Boston Celtics, in the early goings of the season, own the best record in the entire association with an elite 12-3 record following their 25-point drubbing of the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night. Their strong start to the season has been fueled largely by Jayson Tatum’s MVP-caliber play, as the 24-year old star is […]

When the Boston Celtics signed Sam Hauser to a new contract this summer, it was hard to know what to expect from the sharp-shooting forward. Prior to this season, he played only 26 games in the NBA, averaging 6.1 minutes per game and 2.5 points in that limited time. Yet, through 14 games, Hauser has […]

After a chaotic offseason filled with drama and suspensions, it seemed as if controversy would cloud the Boston Celtics’ entire 2022-23 season. On the court, though, the Celtics have ignored the turmoil, holding an impressive 8-3 record. So far, the Celtics have avoided the dreaded NBA Finals hangover. While their defense could use some work, […]

The Boston Celtics set the nets ablaze in their 130-116 win over the New York Knicks. Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown pulled off their best impression of the Splash Brothers. Second-year man Sam Hauser may not have been a blood brother, but he looked like their splash cousin who helped them break a franchise record […]

After a tumultuous offseason, the 2022-23 NBA season is finally here, and the Boston Celtics are opening up league play against the Philadelphia 76ers. Boston will take on their rival at home in what’s sure to be an exciting start to the regular season. Despite summer drama and the suspension of head coach Ime Udoka, […]

The Boston Celtics’ 2022-23 NBA preseason campaign is almost over, and it has been a highly successful preview of the regular season so far. The Celtics stand at 2-1 and have one last preseason game against the Toronto Raptors. While Boston’s only loss was to the Raptors in overtime, the team largely dominated the game […]

The Boston Celtics were back on the court for the first time since their season-ending Game 6 loss at the hands of the Golden State Warriors in the 2022 NBA Finals. Considering how it was for Summer League action rather than a championship, the stakes were considerably lower. Truthfully, the Celtics didn’t have much they […]

The Boston Celtics got busy at the 2022 NBA trade deadline. After finally getting on the right track this season, they struck while the iron is hot. They swung a big trade for San Antonio Spurs point guard Derrick White and brought back center Daniel Theis in a trade with the Houston Rockets. According to […]

The Boston Celtics were patient in this year’s NBA free-agency period. Their patience ultimately paid off when they signed point guard Dennis Schroder to a one-year deal worth the taxpayer midlevel exception of $5.9 million. In this specific post, we’ll be giving our Boston Celtics 2021 NBA free agency grades. Outside of Schroder, the Celtics […]
