The Boston Celtics, under head coach Joe Mazzulla, have embraced an educational strategy dubbed “Celtic University” to develop a young roster following significant offseason changes, achieving a 19-11 record despite Jayson Tatum’s absence due to injury. The team has won 14 of its last 18 games, with Mazzulla adapting his coaching style to focus on teaching rather than criticism, which players like Payton Pritchard and Jaylen Brown credit for their improvement. New starters and rookies have stepped up, contributing to Boston’s strong net rating as they emphasize pace and defensive intensity. The Celtics continue to build on this momentum, recently defeating Indiana 140-122.
