ESPN just released their ranking for each NBA team’s offseason success. For the Boston Celtics, they gave them a B+. Here’s what they did in order to get that ranking.
For the NBA Draft, the Celtics took Baylor Scheierman, from Creighton University. Scheierman averaged 18.5 points, nine rebounds, and four assists in his final season at Creighton. He will be another valuable 3 and D player for the Celtics’ bench, similar to Sam Hauser.
In free agency, the Celtics re-signed two of their stars, one in their superstar Jayson Tatum, and another in the star guard Derrick White, who has proven to be a valuable member of the team.
The Celtics didn’t really have to do much this offseason since they are the reigning champs. So, by bringing back their core and adding another 3 and D player from the draft, they probably will be right back in the NBA Finals.
