The Celtics struggle with the Western Conference elite
Seventy-one games in, and with over three weeks until the start of the NBA Playoffs, the Boston Celtics have taught us a lot. For one, they’re no pushover destined for the Play-In — that’s obvious. They’re among the best two-way teams in the league, ranking in the top four in both offensive and defensive rating. […]
Jordan Walsh opens up about Celtics’ success, his up-and-down role, and more
LAWRENCE, Mass. — Jordan Walsh knew that his Celtics team was going to be just fine. In the offseason, when many in the media and the public predicted the Celtics would end up a lottery team, Walsh could only laugh. “As soon as I started hearing people talking about losing and tanking and all that […]
Celtics’ Joe Mazzulla, Derrick White address viral WWE ‘bonding’ experience
Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla and guard Derrick White spent the first of their two nights off at TD Garden — but not for basketball.

Celtics, Thunder injury reports have lots of good news
When the Celtics and Oklahoma City Thunder face off on Wednesday night, both teams will be at relative full-strength. Everyone is available for the Celtics, except for Nikola Vucevic, who first suffered a fractured right ring finger on March 6th and remains out.

How close is Jayson Tatum to being himself? (Topic Tuesday)
Only Jayson Tatum can truly know how close he is to being full speed, and even he might not know for sure. So I admit off the top that this is a silly topic. However, we’ve been given an 8 game sample size to work with and I thought I’d take a pulse of fans […]
What if Danny Ainge drafted Markelle Fultz over Jayson Tatum?
Former #1 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft Markelle Fultz signed a 10-Day contract with the Toronto Raptors yesterday after spending time with their G-League affiliate this season. The last time Fultz played in the NBA was with the Sacramento Kings in the 2024-25 season where he averaged 2.9 points in 21 games. Although the […]
Hugo Gonzalez’s rookie chore has quickly become the Celtics’ new obsession
BOSTON — Hugo Gonzalez carries a game of Catan onto every team flight, as has frequently been chronicled on the Celtics’ social media accounts. But, don’t be fooled — the Celtics rookie is not a part of the team’s regular competitive Catan games. “I am the Catan hater,” Gonzalez said emphatically, sitting at his locker […]

10 takeaways from a lackadaisical Celtics loss
#1 – Surviving thanks to Jaylen At half-time, Jaylen Brown had scored or assisted on 50% of the Celtics’ points. As the Timberwolves have one of the best rim protections in the league, Brown’s ability to be somewhat efficient from the mid-range is what got the offense going. The problem the Wolves sometimes have is […]
Jayson Tatum deserves all the grace as he returns from the worst injury in basketball
BOSTON — Everyone has something to say about Jayson Tatum’s return to the court. That’s the reality of the world we live in, after all: basketball is consumed by millions of fans worldwide, and the media’s job is to discuss the most hot-button topics, sometimes ad nauseam. Tatum gets it worse than most: he plays […]
Jaylen Brown admits Celtics didn’t ‘meet the challenge’ in loss to Timberwolves

Clutch Opportunities—The Week in Green
The Celtics went 4-0 since my last column, notching a solid win over the Warriors, and some uneven performances against the Wizards, Suns, and Grizzlies. The negative way of looking at this is that the C’s really shouldn’t have struggled against the Grizzlies (24-45), and probably shouldn’t have had such a hard time with the […]
