Outworked and outhustled in the game's second half, shooting was only part of the problem for the Celtics against the Jazz. Or was it?

The Celtics have showcased a historically poor performance from 3-point range, limiting their success so far this season.

Just a day removed from enacting their vengeance against the Philadelphia 76ers in another one-point nailbiter and winning their third straight game this season

The 76ers will be down a pair of rotation players as they face the Celtics at 7 p.m. Friday from Philadelphia. Paul George (left knee surgery) and Jared McCain (right thumb surgery) are both out for Friday’s contest as they have yet to play this season.

The Washington Wizards will be striving to end a five-game losing streak when they visit the Boston Celtics on Wednesday night.

Through their first eight games of the 2025-2026 season, the Celtics have three wins. Just three teams are below them in the Eastern Conference. They don’t have to lose every game to get a top pick (see the Dallas Mavericks and the San Antonio Spurs).

Some Cs fans had grumbled about Boston using a first round pick on the Madrid native despite the little playing time Gonzalez had at his last stop.
