Following a disappointing finish in the playoffs, the future of the Boston Celtics is a bit cloudy. However, Celtics president of basketball operations Brad Stevens seems keen on keeping most of the team together, and that includes star Jaylen Brown.

The Boston Celtics finished the regular season off with the second-best record in the association at 57-25 and held homecourt advantage throughout their time during the playoffs.

Since the Boston Celtics were officially eliminated from postseason contention following their forced ouster by the Miami Heat, the subject of Joe Mazzulla’s job security has seemingly been a hot talking point.

The Boston Celtics did not get a Kevin Durant or a Kyrie Irving during the frenetic NBA trade deadline.

Brad Steven has had a few ups and down in his first year as the Boston Celtics’ president of basketball operations.

In the NBA, there is no such thing as a way-too-early plan. NBA front offices always need to be on their toes, ready to sniff out and give opportunities to players who fit their system, culture, and, who knows, maybe turn the franchise’s fortunes around. And despite coming up short in the 2022 NBA Finals […]
