The Celtics had a disappointing loss to the Jazz, where the C's were not only outplayed but Utah played harder than them.

The Celtics slipped — literally and figuratively. But forget the wet floor. Rebounding, defense, and cold shooting cost Boston far more.

The Boston Celtics could potentially trade a star player this season, but is this really what his trade value would be?

Kevin Durant, who has experience recovering from Achilles tears, is shocked by the speed at which Jayson Tatum is recovering from his devastating injury.

Ainge, 43, joined the Celtics in 2009 as a coach for the Maine Red Claws in the G-League. He moved into the front office two years later and served as an assistant general manager for the last six seasons, helping Boston reach the postseason in 17 of their last 18 seasons.

The Celtics didn’t win Monday against the Utah Jazz because they didn’t deserve to win. A team that looked sharp last week has returned to its wildly inconsistent and erratic ways with the common thread as it always has been under Joe Mazzulla — porous 3-point shooting.

Mazzulla hasn't hesitated to pull young players after mistakes. There were a lot of them in Monday's loss to the Jazz.

During his time suiting up for the Celtics, Brown wore only jersey Nos. 42 and 5 and put up 5.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.1 assists per game.

This was probably not what he envisioned. The Celtics coughed up a 14-point first-half lead and lost to the Jazz, 105-103, on Jusuf Nurkić’s putback with 0.6 seconds left.

Through their first eight games of the 2025-2026 season, the Celtics have three wins. Just three teams are below them in the Eastern Conference. They don’t have to lose every game to get a top pick (see the Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs).
