The Boston Celtics are entering what could be a throwaway season in the 2025-26 campaign. After Jayson Tatum went down with a torn Achilles in the second round of the NBA Playoffs, the team underwent major changes during the offseason.

Jayson Tatum tore his Achilles on May 12. Typically, stars who suffer such an injury don't play the following season while they recover. However, the Boston Celtics have not technically ruled Tatum out for the 2025-26 season.

A group led by Celtics minority owner Steve Pagliuca has reached a deal to buy the Connecticut Sun and move the team to Boston, according to a person familiar with the sale.

The Sun would play its home games at TD Garden, where they played two games over the last two years and sold out the arena on both occasions. According to Washburn, the Celtics have "no issue" with the Sun becoming co-tenants at TD Garden,
