WASHINGTON DC — The Celtics are ready to turn the page on their 2024 NBA championship. But, on Thursday afternoon, they experienced their final championship celebration, a staple tradition of U.S. professional sports: a trip to the White House.
“We had not been focused on this,” Celtics co-owner Wyc Grousbeck admitted after the day’s events. “We got through the banner and Opening Night, and then it was all business, led by Joe [Mazzulla]. Joe really doesn’t want us to dwell too much on the past. He wants us to move forward. Having said that, everybody here — including Joe — really seemed to have a great time.
