How much should Boston Celtics fans be worried about Jaylen Brown's knee?
How much should we be worried about Jaylen Brown's knee after the Georgia native opened up about how much it is bothering him lately? Brown recently admitted it has been impacting his play on the hardwood, lining up with the eye test that has seen the Cal alum lack his trademark athleticism and aggressive style of play.
The team recently circulated a press release on the knee injury (itself a bit out of the ordinary in terms of how we usually hear about such things in the media) relating that it was a bone bruise with an impingement, which Brown claims is mainly a pain management concern.
The host of the "Celtics Rundown" podcast, Bobby Krivitsky, on the "Five Reasons Sports Network" YouTube channel put together a clip of a recent discussion with WEEI's Justin Turpin on the topic. Check it out below!

Can the Boston Celtics shock the NBA's Eastern Conference this season?
Can the Boston Celtics shock the NBA's Eastern Conference this season? After the Celtics gutted their 2024 title core in the wake of star forward Jayson Tatum's Achilles tendon injury and impending repeater tax and second apron team building penalties, the general consensus on how Boston will play in the 2025-26 NBA regular season has been a borderline playoff ball club at best, and a lottery team at worst. But is there a chance that the current iteration of the Celtics could surprise people and comfortably make the postseason, followed by a multi-round playoff run? Or is that asking too much of a stripped down Boston roster with a number of young and rookie players? The hosts of the CLNS Media "First to the Floor" podcast, Jake Issenberg, Ben Vallis, and Wayne Spooney, took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk it over. Check it out below!

NBA clears Boston Celtics' $6.1 billion sale to Bill Chisholm
A group headed by Bill Chisholm is set to take control of the Boston Celtics after the NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the sale on Wednesday. The NBA wrote in a statement, 'The transaction is expected to close shortly.' The reported $6.1 billion valuation for the club makes it the second-largest sale price for a US sports franchise, behind the $10 billion valuation for the Los Angeles Lakers when Mark Walter purchased that team in June. Chisholm and his partners are buying at least 51 percent of the Celtics. The ownership stake will increase in 2028, according to the purchase contract, when Chisholm's group is scheduled to buy out the remaining minority shareholders at a $7.3 billion valuation. According to multiple media reports, Chisholm will take over as the Celtics' governor when the sale goes through. Outgoing owner Wyc Grousbeck is expected to serve as alternate governor and remain the CEO through 2028. Grousbeck will cede his role when he no longer has the required ownership stake of at least 15 percent. Chisholm, the co-founder and managing partner of the California-based private equity firm STG Partners, is a Massachusetts native and longtime Celtics fan. Grousbeck and the outgoing ownership group Boston Basketball Partners LLC purchased the Celtics for $360 million in 2002. During that group's tenure, the club won NBA titles in 2007-08 and 2023-24 – the latter representing Boston's league-record 18th championship.
