What do we need to know about the sale of the Boston Celtics? The Celtics recently announced that the storied ball club's current majority owners, Irv and Wyc Grousbeck, have elected to sell their shares of the team to what will be the group to take their place as majority owners helmed by businessman William Chisholm.
When will the deal be finalized? How will it affect the club's current quest to repeat as champs, and perhaps to found a dynasty beyond the current season? Could pricier players soon be on the move to save some money for the new owners? Will the Celtics stay in TD Garden long-term, or will they look to build their own arena? As you can see, there are a LOT of unanswered questions about the sale.
The hosts of the CLNS Media "Celtics Lab" podcast, Alex Goldberg, Cameron Tabatabaie, and Justin Quinn, took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk it over with Axios business editor Dan Primack. Check it out below!

Lakers, Warriors, or Pacers? Myles Turner's Free Agency Landing Spots Revealed
The Indiana Pacers advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals after defeating the Cleveland Cavaliers in five games and will take on either the New York Knicks or the Boston Celtics. However, they have a busy offseason ahead of them. They own their own first-round pick, and starting center Myles Turner will be an unrestricted free agent. Advertisement Turner has long been linked to the Los Angeles Lakers, and the Golden State Warriors have a very clear need in the frontcourt. On league insider recently revealed where Turner is leaning with his decision. Myles Turner free agency Fisher Turner averaged 15.6 points, 6.5 rebounds, and two blocks this season. He shot a solid 48.1 percent from the floor and 39.6 percent from deep, serving as one of the best floor-spacers in the league. While the Lakers and Warriors can offer bigger markets and superstars for him to play next to, Turner has only ever played for the Pacers. On top of that, Indiana did not get eliminated in the earlier rounds like the Lakers and Warriors did, making his choice easy. Advertisement "The rising expectation, league sources say, is that Turner will be extending his stay in the Hoosier State," NBA insider Jake Fischer wrote. Indiana can offer just as much money, if not more, than LA or Golden State, and allow him to be the third-best player on the team, barring a breakout from Bennedict Mathurin or Andrew Nesmith, which would be welcome. Indiana seems ready to march to their first Finals appearance since 2000 this season, and will be able to run things back next year with a similar roster. With the Cavs reeling from an early elimination and the Boston Celtics dealing with injuries and difficult financials, the usually weak Eastern Conference will be the Pacers' for the taking next season, provided they retain Turner.

Scouting a potential Boston Celtics draft pick out of Penn State
The Boston Celtics have two picks in the upcoming NBA Draft. They will be selecting with the 28th and 32nd picks. Brad Stevens will likely prioritize players who have spent multiple years at the collegiate level, meaning they're more polished entering the league and have a better chance of earning some minutes off the bench. Following Jayson Tatum's Achilles tendon injury, Boston isn't expected to be a championship contender next season. As such, the Celtics could put some additional focus into the upcoming draft and their overall player development. Advertisement During a recent episode of the "How 'Bout Them Celtics?" podcast, hosts Jack Simone and Sam LaFrance dove into Yanic Konan Niederhauser, who is expected to be available in Boston's range. The 7-foot big man spent two seasons with the Northern Illinois Huskies before moving to Penn State for the 2024-25 collegiate season. In 29 outings, he averaged 12.9 points, 2.3 blocks and 6.3 rebounds, shooting 61.1% from the field. You can watch the full scouting report by clicking on the embedded video above.
