After reaching six Eastern Conferences in the last seven seasons, and after losing to the Golden States Warriors in the 2021-22 NBA Finals, although the team is built around a young and already all-star core of Jason Tatum and Jaylen Brown, surrounded by veteran seasoned players, the Celtics made their move toward the 2023-24 season, acquiring center Kristaps Porziņgis from the Washington Wizards. The price was high, as the team had to give up veteran point guard and all-NBA defensive team veteran Marcus Smart, the man who spent all of his career in Boston.

One month later, the Celtics made sure their nucleus will remain intake, giving Brown a maximum veteran extension, in what has become the biggest contract in NBA history.

In addition, the team traded forward Grant Williams to Dallas, Forward Robert Williams III and guard to Portland for all-star guard Jrue Holiday in another blockbuster trade. The moves have placed the Celtics as one of the favorite teams to win the title, with perhaps the best six players combination in the league in Taytum, Brown, Horford, Porzingis, Holliday and Derrick White. The bench is questionable and the team is expected to have further additions.

The team has surrounded second-year coach Joe Mazzulla with experienced assistants, such as former players Sam Cassell (who won the last title with the Celtics in 2008), Amile Jefferson and Phil Pressey (another Celtic ex-player).

Founded in 1946 and one of eight NBA teams (out of 23 total teams) to survive the league's first decade, the team is regarded as the 3rd most successful franchise to date in the major four traditional North American professional sports. They made an early mark by becoming in 1950, the first basketball franchise to draft an African American player, when they signed Chuck Cooper.

In the early years the Celtics struggled but the hiring of Coach Red Auerbach changed things very much for the better. He built a team which included center Bill Russell and standout Tommy Heinsohn which in 1956 gave the Celtics the first of their 17 NBA Championships. From 1959 the Celtics won eight titles in a row which remains a record for American professional sport.

The team went back to the glory and the NBA titles in the 1970's. Under former player turned coach Tommy Heinsohn and led by all-stars Dave Cowens, John Havlicek, Paul Silas and Jo Jo White, the team won the titles in 74 and 76.

Another decade, another strings of banners. The 1980 saw the first addition of the "Big 3", with Larry Bird, Kevin McChale and Robert Parish, under yet another former player, K.C. Jones, taking care of business and winning three championships in 81, 84 and 86, through another epic series of battles with the Los Angeles Lakers-led Magic Johnson.

After difficult times in the 1990's, former player turned general manger Ainge rebuild the team around the new "Big 3", this time with Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. The move brought the last title for now, in 2008.

The overall success of the team has been phenomenal- the Celtics have a NBA record 17 Champions

hips including 8 in a row, or 11 championships in 13 years. Such is the prestige and the passion of this team that one can be sure that further honors cannot be far away and tickets will be much in demand.
