Regardless of who has been on the floor, the defending champions have fittingly been the best team this preseason.

Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla credited Jordan Walsh for taking the right steps to improve as a player this preseason.

After playing most of his regular starters in the Celtics’ first three preseason games, head coach Joe Mazzulla is giving that top unit a night off.

Luke Kornet has started three games this preseason in place of Horford and Mazzulla wouldn’t commit one way or another earlier this week whether Horford would start or remain in a bench role upon his return.

Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla said Thursday that veteran big man Al Horford is using the preseason to ramp up.

Jordan Walsh is the youngest player on the Celtics roster at 20 years old yet he finds himself firmly in the mix for said opportunity after the first two weeks of training camp. Walsh saw big minutes with the second unit during his first two preseason games and earned some praise from Joe Mazzulla Thursday for his performances.
