Going into the 2025-26 NBA season, many considered it a gap year for the Boston Celtics due to significant player departures and Jayson Tatum’s injury, leaving Jaylen Brown to take on a leadership role. Despite a rocky start, Brown had a career-best season, averaging 28.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 5.1 assists, while leading the league in multiple shooting categories and earning his fifth All-Star selection.

However, the Celtics faced a disappointing playoff exit, leading to uncertainty about the team’s future.
