Despite potentially losing Jayson Tatum for the entire 2025-26 season, Brad Stevens doesn't view this season as a rebuild for Boston.

Rockets superstar Kevin Durant says that Celtics superstar Jayson Tatum will need to make significant changes following Achilles' injury.

According to ESPN's Brian Windhorst, the Celtics are actively in trade talks with teams to offload Simons' $27.7M expiring contract. "I have talked to other teams who have said they are actively trying to trade Anfernee Simons," Windhorst told Hoop Collective Podcast, via RealGM. "Whether they can or not is another [thing]."

The Boston Celtics are reportedly exploring the possibility of flipping guard Anfernee Simons after acquiring him in a trade that sent veteran guard Jrue Holiday to the Portland Trail Blazers this offseason.
