Star Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown is back on a basketball court for the first time (that we know of, anyway) since getting knee surgery this offseason. And by most accounts, the Georgia native has been looking much more like his former, springy, athletic self while he has been putting in the work ahead of the NBA's 2025-26 regular season.

The Boston Celtics face a new challenge this year. For the first time since they traded away the No. 1 pick (ultimately used on point guard Markelle Fultz, who's currently a man without a team this summer) for the rights to draft Jayson Tatum at No.

The sale of the Boston Celtics has been finalized. Private equity mogul Bill Chisholm has taken control of the NBA’s most-decorated franchise from a group led by Wyc Grousbeck that had owned them for more than two decades.
