Boston Celtics big man Neemias Queta has a potential career year in front of him
With only Queta, Xavier Tillman Sr., Luka Garza, and Amari Williams as true bigs on the roster this season barring a late addition this summer, Queta will have all the runway he needs and then some after the departure of Kristaps Porzingis, Luke Kornet, and Al Horford (presumably) via trade and free agency.

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.
