Boston Celtics

The old guard has almost entirely changed out. The voices I grew up with and so many of you welcomed into your lives on a nightly and weekly basis, the voices who described the greatest golden age a sports town has ever experienced, are now memories like those teams they called.

Jayson Tatum didn't see the floor in the US Men's Opening game. James and Kevin Durant — the two most-experienced Olympians on this American team — opened the Paris Games and a U.S. bid for a fifth consecutive gold medal with a near-perfect show. Durant made his first eight shots and scored 23 points, James added 21 points, nine assists and seven rebounds and the U.S. rolled to a 110-84 win over Serbia in the Olympic opener for both teams on Sunday.

The Boston Celtics re-signed big men Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman Sr. on Tuesday, bringing back two bench players who helped them win the NBA championship.

Jayson Tatum is the newest member of the NBA's $300 million club.

The ownership group that controls the NBA champion Boston Celtics says it intends to sell all its shares of the team.

Apart from the Celtics who back up their words with action, which Boston ownership group do you trust the most to bring another championship back to Beantown?

The race to prevent Boston from becoming the first team since the 2018 Golden State Warriors to repeat as champs began with the draft Wednesday night.

Set to start at TD Garden at 11 a.m., the procession was expected to last about 90 minutes, turning first onto Causeway Street in front of arena, past city hall, through Boston Common, down Boylston Street and eventually ending at Hynes Convention Center.
