The Boston Celtics chose Hugo Gonzalez out of Real Madrid at No. 28, Amari Williams out of Kentucky at No. 46, and Max Shulga out of VCU at No. 57 during the 2025 NBA Draft. We dive into the background and skill sets of all three players, plus provide some context on why the Celtics chose them and why Boston traded the No. 32 pick of the second round in exchange for four second-round picks from the Orlando Magic. Fans also chime in on what they expect from the new players, and we preview the NBA Summer League which begins July 10.

Payton Pritchard outscored New York’s entire bench all by himself while the Celtics offense returned to its dominant ways while racking up 20 makes from long distance. A raucous crowd at Madison Square Garden did nothing to harm Boston – and actually may have done the opposite – as the ‘road dogs’ continued to pile up wins on the road this season. We’re sounding off on it all, including observations from start to finish of Game 3, to Kristaps Porzingis’ health, to what to expect in Monday’s Game 4.

The Boston Celtics weren’t able to get a shot off at the end of overtime to potentially tie the game up and the New York Knicks outlasted them for a 108-105 win at TD Garden.

Jayson Tatum was in his bag Tuesday night as the Boston Celtics demolished the Orlando Magic to close out a gentleman’s sweep and advance to the second round. Tatum logged his second straight 30-point double-double as the Celtics exploded during the second half to turn a two-point deficit into a 31-point win. We’re sounding off on Tatum’s performance, the moment the game changed when Jaylen Brown drew a fifth foul on Paolo Banchero, and on the vibes the Celtics are feeling as they await either the New York Knicks or Detroit Pistons in the next round.

The Celtics took a 3-1 series lead Sunday night thanks to a 16-7 run to close the game out. Jayson Tatum accounted for nine of those 16 points, including three off of yet another foul by Paolo Banchero on a Tatum 3. Boston’s superstar wing scored 37 points in the game, and he and Jaylen Brown combined to shoot 23-for-24 from the free-throw line. We’re sounding off on Boston’s increased aggression, the team’s defense led by Al Horford, and Boston being a league-best 20-2 on the season following a loss.

The final 30 seconds of Game 3 were total chaos. Inadvertent whistles and game and shot clock concerns helped the Orlando Magic sneak out with a 95-93 win over the Boston Celtics. This was a defensive slugfest reminiscent of the early 2000s, with both teams struggling to score. We’re diving in and sounding off on everything that happened, including those final 30 seconds, before taking a few comments from our fans on what went down.
