How the Celtics’ roster is primed to beat an NBA’s point of emphasis
Heading into the 2026-2027 season, the NBA Competition Committee identified four areas of focus: off-arm push offs by offensive players, push-offs from screeners, hand-checking off-ball offensive players, and impeding straight line drives.

Jayson Tatum has new perspective at Celtics training camp
CHARLESTON — This time last year, Jayson Tatum was in the background. While most of the Celtics were finishing up training camp and preparing for the season, Tatum spent most of his free time in the weight room, looking in from the outside. He still made it a point to go to every practice and […]

The Ultimate Student for Boston’s Shooting Development School
The Celtics have developed a reputation as one of the NBA’s best player-development organizations, and that has extended to improving the shooting of players who arrived with questions about their jumper. Over the years, Boston has helped several players very recently make significant strides from three, and the results speak for themselves. It’s safe to […]

The new-look Celtics are bonding, thanks to Mike Conley

BOSTON — It’s been 16 and a half months since Jayson Tatum went down with an Achilles rupture, since the emotional day he collapsed on the floor of Madison Square Garden and cried out in pain, wondering if he’d ever be able to play basketball at the highest level again.
