With Brad Stevens adding another All-Star talent next to Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown this offseason, expectations will be high for the 2023-24 Celtics.
ESPN seems to agree, as the network’s new win-loss predictions for the upcoming NBA season tabs Boston as the top seed in the Eastern Conference standings.
In their post, ESPN has the Celtics finishing first in the conference for the first time since 2016-17 off of a record of 55-27.
Their projections have Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks finishing just behind Boston with a 54-28 record, and the Cleveland Cavaliers rounding out the top three with a 50-32 record.
