Less than a week after the Grousbeck family agreed to sell the Boston Celtics to a group led by Bill Chisholm at a valuation of $6.1 billion, Celtics’ president of basketball operations Brad Stevens offered up an endorsement of Boston’s new ownership group while speaking to the media in Phoenix.
While fielding questions after Boston’s shootaround at PHX Arena, Stevens stressed that there haven’t been any seismic changes to the hierarchy of the team’s leadership group — even if more daunting challenges might await this offseason when it comes to the franchise’s hefty luxury-tax bill.
“My only thing is just asking to be kept in the loop on everything I need to know from the standpoint of making decisions here and now and moving forward,” Stevens told reporters, including MassLive’s Souichi Terada.
