2. Boston Celtics
Fresh off a return to the NBA Finals for the first time in more than a decade, it’s no surprise to see the Boston Celtics near the top of this list. Even though there’s an argument to be made that they should be sitting at the top, you’ll understand more about the ranking later.
Nevertheless, the Celtics checking in at No. 2 should not be overlooked. Jayson Tatum is a budding superstar if he isn’t there already, and Jaylen Brown grew as a player with the success that he experienced in the postseason.
Plus, let’s not forget that the Celtics just added Malcolm Brogdon during the offseason. He will shore up the team’s questions in the backcourt.
