Latest news and updates about the Celtics
BOSTON — Paul Pierce is no stranger to winning at TD Garden. So, when the 10-time NBA All-Star and Celtics champion took the parquet for a three-point competition on Sunday afternoon, it felt just like the good ol’ days. Pierce competed in the Celtics’ first annual Causeway Classic three-point shooting competition, going up against former […]

BOSTON — The Celtics will be without Nikola Vucevic for the 8th consecutive game when they face the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night. Vucevic is expected to be re-evaluated in the next 1-2 weeks as he continues to recover. Jaylen Brown is probable to play as he deals with a left quad contusion. The rest […]
Minnesota Timberwolves at Boston CelticsDate: March 22nd, 2026Time: 7:00 PM CDTLocation: TD GardenTelevision Coverage: NBC, Peacock, TelemundoRadio Coverage: KFAN FM, Wolves App, iHeart Radio There’s a certain kind of loss that tells you everything you need to know about a team. Not the buzzer-beater losses. Not the “we got unlucky” losses. Not even the “their […]
The Jayson Tatum return has been riveting. Every shot attempt, rebound, pass, and even high-five over these first seven games has been scrutinized. The overall early returns on the Tatum comeback have been sensational; however, his performance against the Memphis Grizzlies is a good reminder that he still has a way to go before he […]
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 […]

This one had me worried for much of the game. The Celtics were sleep walking for much of it. Not hitting shots and not giving normal effort on defense. Glad they finally woke up in the 4th. There weren't a lot of Grizzlies fans chatting in the forums for this one. Seems like most have given up on the season. I always love it when there are a lot of Celtics fans in away arenas. Funny how some fans loved the halftime show and others thought it cri...
1. Escaped the Trap Game Coming into this game, the Memphis Grizzlies had 10 players listed as OUT on the injury report and were running out guys on two-way deals and 10-day contracts against a mostly healthy Boston Celtics team only missing Nikola Vucevic. This has the recipe for a gold old fashioned Trap Game […]
As soon as he saw an opportunity to attack the offensive glass, Luka Garza battled three Memphis Grizzlies defenders to grab the rebound off Payton Pritchard’s 3-point miss, put it back up, and convert an and-one in the first quarter. Any chance to extend a possession with a second-chance opportunity, Garza was there for the […]
On a night when the Celtics shot 26% from three, they found a way to beat the Grizzlies 117-112 behind 30 points from Jaylen Brown and a season-high 22 points from Luka Garza. The Celtics started their usuals with only Nikola Vucevic missing the game. Joe Mazzulla put Derrick White, Jaylen Brown, Sam Hauser, Jayson […]

Washington Wizards center Anthony Davis will be sidelined through the end of the month with a finger sprain, the team announced Friday. Davis hasn’t played since early January when he suffered ligament damage in his left hand. The 32-year-old forward opted against surgery before he was later traded to the Wizards for a package that […]
Jordan Walsh’s season has already had two distinct phases. Back in mid-November, he stepped into the starting lineup and stayed there for the next 20 games. The Celtics went 15–5 during that stretch, and his role made sense within what Boston needed at the time. He defended across positions, ran the floor, and kept the […]
