Latest news and updates about the Celtics
The Celtics roll into Chicago looking to extend a winning rhythm, but the Bulls are in a groove as well. Boston had to dig deep last night, and they’ll have to again on the second half of a back-to-back. Fatigue may be a factor, but the Celtics have a key contributor returning. Here are three […]

The Celtics could be without Jaylen Brown and Neemias Queta when they face the Chicago Bulls on Saturday night. Brown (left hamstring tightness) and Queta (non-COVID illness) are both probable. Brown strained his hamstring in the preseason and has been dealing with some tightness in that hamstring over the past week, which he said affected […]

In one of the most exciting games of the season, the Boston Celtics eked out a win over the Brooklyn Nets in a double OT thriller on Friday night. It was a back-and-forth game of runs, 22 lead changes, 13 ties, and no lead bigger than 11 points. With the Nets having lost their last […]

What a game!! I always love when there are loud Celtics fans on the road. Nets fans love PP, Hauser, and Hugo for the most part, except the one fan that wants to punch Payton. I love how they kept saying that Jaylen didn't do anything but yet he finished with a triple double. It's funny how a lot of Celtics fans want to trade for Claxton when Nets fans really want to get rid of him. After watching Amari Williams in this one, I have to say that the Celt...

In this series, we’ll look at the biggest statistical shifts from last season to this one to understand how Celtics players have evolved — even while wearing the same jersey. Roles don’t always change with trades or new contracts. Sometimes, they change more quietly, through usage, shot selection, and responsibility. Jaylen Brown’s season is a […]

Derrick Rose ‘s iconic No. 1 jersey will be hung in the rafters of the United Center on Saturday night following their game against the Boston Celtics. The current team has won three in a row and are back at .500, but the packed house tonight will have more than a regular season game on their agenda. Rose’s emergence as a budding young superstar, prior to a cruel intervention from fate, helped reinvigorate his hometown Bulls during an exciting era. Along with fellow Chicago All-Stars Jimm...

We are two weeks from the trade deadline, and the Celtics are among a handful of teams rumored to be buyers seeking a positional upgrade to prepare for a postseason run.

I am going to try my hardest to remain calm during this. To keep things relaxed, I’ll start with a simple list of things that happened during that Celtics win: Late substitution, choreographed Hugo Gonzalez game tying three with .4 seconds left in overtime… ok? All that after a comeback to take a big lead […]

Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla threw rookie Hugo González into a critical spot in Friday night’s 130-126 win over the Brooklyn Nets in double overtime — quite literally. It was a contrasting moment for González as earlier, in the first quarter, Mazzulla yanked the 19-year-old with visible frustration after a mental mistake led to […]

BROOKLYN — Plenty went wrong down the stretch in the Celtics’ double-overtime win over the Brooklyn Nets. A 9-point lead with just over two minutes to go in regulation was squandered, with Brooklyn getting putback after putback as the deficit dissipated. The Celtics’ two primary bigs — Luka Garza and Neemias Queta — both fouled […]

Before the season began, everyone had a different opinion about how the Celtics would fare. Some people naively thought they would plummet to the bottom of the East and tank for hometown kid AJ Dybantsa. Others thought they would hang around and perhaps make a surge if, and only if, Jayson Tatum returned. Most thought […]

Jaylen Brown looked like the best player on the floor early, Boston won the offensive rebounding battle again over one of the league’s most physically imposing teams and Brown barely missed a […]
