After finishing exactly .500 last season, the Celtics have hovered around that mark this year as well. The Play-In Tournament appears to be a likely outcome once again barring a significant shift.
They wrapped up a 1-4 road trip Friday night with a disheartening, 111-90 loss to the Phoenix Suns and currently sit at 13-14 with the red-hot Milwaukee Bucks and Golden State Warriors on the horizon.
With the regular season one-third complete, head coach Ime Udoka indicated that he isn’t afraid to shake the situation up if he feels doing so will pay dividends.
